Product Description
Having recently devoted more of his time to the breezy, melodious bliss of the D.K project, Dang Khoa-Chau once again dons the 45 ACP alias for a more downbeat E.P on L.I.E.S. It’s arguably far more accessible than his previous work for the label under the now familiar moniker, but still pleasingly left-of-centre. There’s much to admire throughout, from the poignant melodies, drifting keys and spaced-out drums of ‘Hang In There’, and Marimba-laden deep space techno of ‘Smoked Out’, to the clarinet-laden ambient textures of bittersweet closer ‘Graveyard Shift’. While opener “Slick Response” – a bubbling, ear-pleasing chunk of metronomic techno – feels a little more positive, it’s still largely melancholic in tone.
