ARTIST: HARVEY McKAY
TITLE: Nightwalker / Raw
LABEL: Soma
FORMAT: 12” vinyl
RELEASED: January 25
If we tell you that ‘Nightwalker‘ has been the most played track in Richie Hawtin’s sets over the last eight weeks then you’ll probably have some idea what to expect. Brooding, building rhythms, slowly adding and subtracting elements with almost imperceptible subtlety. Vinyl distortion crackling away in the background. A spooked out synth line that sends shivers down your spine And, we not much else. Well, that is why they call it minimal, isn’t it?!
It’s a DJ tool for sure and as such hardly likely to get the postman whistling, but all the same several cuts above the average dancefloor filler. Flip track ’Raw’ is even more spacious and weird, its hi-hats creeping up on you as echoing effects bring vintage Sabres of Paradise to mind. Class all round.
3/5
