Passing
We are pleased to bring to light extended Stir family member b80’s debut to our digital imprint. The ‘Passing EP’ is full of deep, dark and dreamy atmosphere and deranged mind benders. b80 doesn’t skimp on the cryptic rhythms and enveloping patterns that make the EP an overall thoughtful but very danceable one.
First up is ‘Pink Track’ and its warm but eerie synth which gives a sense of what it would be like had Blade Runner’s score been handled by any Techno stalwart. Next is ‘Jailbait’ which is pushed along by crisp open hi hats, a throbbing kick and several noisy passages of synthy hotness. ’Blue Moon’ is all about the warm chords. Nuff said. Finally, ‘Rig 8′ gets on the spooky side. Clickety hats fuse with an enveloping dark bassline and sculpted noise to set a mood of shadowiness.

b80 goes deep in the darkness with this four tracker ep. Definitely a good job overall but my pref are Jailbait and Blue Moon.

engaging listen overall – BLUE MOON is my pick here with its atmospheric and dreamy vibes drawing you deep into the track
