HOUSE CRAIOVA

A lot has happened to BLM since his last solo ep back in 2008, fatherhood being the main factor for his absence. Thankfully the nappy changing musical magician didn’t stop tinkering with his synths in that time has come back with a string of forthcoming productions that mark a real step up in quality for him. So, first up BLM releases on home soil on his own FOF label. ‘Garage is Back’ keeps things silky smooth – simplicity is the key here, the percussive elements building slowly before the evocative vocal of ‘Suz’ brings a hypnotic sexyness to the whole affair. ‘Step to This’ is the logical progression from his last FOF release (Believe In Love) with it’s skippy beats and uplifting stabs being a sure winner for the coming summer. Mulletover promoter / DJ / all around sexual dynamo Geddes provides a rather splendid dub remix of ‘Garage is Back’ on the flip. Cleverly using key elements of the original to keep the flava’ but dipping the tempo to give it more of a groove based feel.
