H.O.S.H. – Ego EP
TITLE: EGO EP
LABEL: POKER FLAT
‘Don Arp’ kicks off this 12″ – a mid-tempo banger that works as perfectly early-on in a set as it would at a peak-time strobe-n-smoke moment. The vibe is pure heads down funk – from the irresistible groove to the ecstatic cut up vocals – but it’s the filthy, Funktion One-troubling bassline that fully detonates thisBbasement bomb.
Don Arp is going to tear up all sorts of dancefloors for a long time to come.
The dub version of ‘Don Arp’ puts a new slant on the same growling groove, dispensing most of the vocals and letting the synths bubble and the clattering hats and snares dominate.
Sharing the B side with the dub, comes ‘Facebook’. Way more fun than the social network, H.O.S.H drops another heavy-grooving bodymover.
Clocking in at 114bpm, the track hints at that slightly deranged part of the night – a pitched down vocal, a neurotic melody and enough grit and attitude to rock any flagging feet.
Poker Flat’s incredible run of recent releases goes on.
The EP is out 16th July 2012.
Ranking is 8/10.
