Cyberfunk, Lenzman, Data 3 and more
Impish 'Burning' (Program)
The giant talent known as Impish makes a serious statement with this new release on Ram’s prestigious sub-label. There’s a whole heap of Break-esque brilliance on show: sweet vocal melodies and guitar pluckings are deliciously undercut by the crunchy percussive patterns beneath, while fizzing bassline electrodes course through the veins of the track to bring extra grit and funk. Impish’s mix of sunshine and thunder is a potent combo.
