Ryan Crosson takes care of the fifth EP on tastemaking Detroit label My Baby Records with a fantastically forward-looking four-track vinyl offering. Ryan Crosson is a complex artistic creature who has roamed far and wide in his storied career. His always innovative music has come on groundbreaking labels including Wagon Repair, M_nus, Spectral Sound, and of course his own Visionquest. Each time he explores a new sound world and draws on things as diverse as musique concr\u00e8te, Downtown New York funk, and East African jazz. Now he cooks up more beguiling brilliance on this fresh new EP. Opener \u2018Speaker Dubs\u2019 is a deep, bubbly rhythm track with dub chords rippling out to infinity. It\u2019s a stylish track full of far-sighted reverence and supple groove that locks you in a trance. \u2018Ogilvie\u2019 is a piece of absorbing ambient with found sound recordings of muffled voices that sounds like you\u2019re in an underground station. B-side opener \u2018FutureTheory\u2019 is another minimal masterpiece with glitchy sound design and eerie chords peeling off a tight, kinetic groove. Ghoulish voices add more late-night atmosphere and the whole track grows ever darker and more consuming as it unfolds. The excellent \u2018OortCloud\u2019 takes you back to the heart of a dance-floor with futuristic menace: the smooth drum loops are militant, the voices are dehumanised and the searching synths speak of a desolate landscape. It\u2019s heady, brilliantly bleak stuff that is utterly infectious. This is another hugely inventive EP from one of the underground\u2019s most consistent talents<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
