Leon Vynehall // Kiburu’s
Fresh faced laptop urchins rarely stray far from scouring the internet for free drum sounds: in contrast, Vynehall’s track is built upon samples of birds of paradise’s mating calls. The result is a vivid widescreen panorama that feels like you’ve stumbled into a David Attenborough wildlife documentary being filmed in Corsica Studios. The birds might bring Kiburu’s an unorthodox edge, but the bedrock of the track is inevitably a deliciously detailed beat and resonant bass stretched out to eight kinetic minutes. Rojus is released on April 1 via Gerd Janson’s label Running Back, and there’s a launch event on March 25th at Mick’s Garage in east London – which, if it’s anything like the Attenborough-documentary-meets-club fantasised about above, should be unforgettable. |
