Theo huddles exclusives from his Sound Signature crew on a 90 minute jazz chords x syncopated machine/sampler madness, spanning Specter to Howard Thomas’s H-Fusion and Jason Hogans.

Naturally, as massive fans of Howard Thomas and his ‘Captured Entities’ as H-Fusion, we’re drawn to the anxious drums and brooding vibes of the session’s massive highlight ‘Experiment 10’, an ideal example of how to hold tension without “going anywhere”, while Raj Mahal serves a class bit of spangled dub in ‘Hudson’s’, and the drums fiends will get their’s everywhere from Jason Hogans’ frisky bewt ’Surrounded by Trees’, to the slompy soul claps of ‘Janis’ by Sterling Toles.

There’s also dusty deep house magic by Ian Fink, collaborator of Omar-S, in the velvet keys and latinate bustle of ‘Moonlite (Duality/Detroit Live Version)’, the purring flex of Jon Dixon on ‘Wind Drifts’, 10 mins of byzantine beatdown from Specter, and Theo chiming in on the set’s early run of syrupy slow cuts with Duminie DePorres with the near-beatless charms of ‘Real Deal’.
