House for the weekend
Fluida 'Ivory Spiral' (Southern Fried Records)
‘Lost Moments’ reminds us that summer is on the way: it’s fine, warm house with ethereal tinkles, whispering vocals, organic percussion and distant guitars. There’s also a dub mix, too, but the full vocal version is lovely and sounds like Jamie xx on vacation. ‘Ritual’ has a unique, clanging drum pattern and while ‘Barriers’ never quite gets into fifth gear, it’s still a lush and emotional piece that leaves us longing for Fluida to release an album.
8/10
