A-side Switch, a joint Tomson & Benedict effort, is an atmospheric, slow-burning and quite techy affair, with tinges of prog around the edges but with some very cool (and decidedly non-proggy) organ sounds as well. On the B, Time For Change from Tomson is a more straight-up deep houser with sampled spoken vocals ("We're looking at a time of change, a time of revolution," etc) over intricate, toppy rhythms and pads/atmos galore, while finally the standout for me is Benedict's Automatism, a mellow and dubby late-night ride with more of those gorgeous organ sounds.
A very fine start indeed – more soon, please.
Out: This week
About: As I said, We_Ctrl is Tomson & Benedict's own label. Despite being brand new, you can already find them on Facebook, Soundcloud and at their own website. Mind you we shouldn't be surprised: with five years of releases on respected labels like Hudd Traxx, Freerange and Urban Torque under their belt, T&B are hardly newcomers to the game…
