One of the best house records I own, and I own many. This one took me by surprise. It's just so lush, lo-fi in all the right ways, loose and gritty in the best ways, and I definitely hear the nod to KDJ... reminds me so much of his 'Soul Sounds'. Props to the wildly talented Horatio Luna! KILLER cuts. Alland Byallo
"Automatic" couldn't be a better sequel if you tried - it delivers on what made "Phase" great, but also expands on that psych-funk-jazz fusion to give a couple new hints of flavour.
The title track has a great synth beat with those vocoded vocals, 'Downstream' is perfect for a poolside lounge, but 'Memory Palace' is hands down my favourite here - that 90s house-style piano man, it's so upbeat, righteous and makes for a perfect rhythm for the lads to jam over.
Flawless album, cover to cover. Xtra Happy
