LIST PICK
MR. KäFER & PHLOCALYST CLOUDSCAPES (FEAT. SáTYR)
Lo-fi heavyweights Mr. Käfer & Phlocalyst are restructuring the metaphysics of "a jazz thing" (to quote Gang Starr). 'Cloudscapes (feat. Sátyr)' is the first single from their album Now / Again on Melting Pot Music. Flemish producer Phlocalyst lives in Munich where he plays in a classical orchestra. Mixing the track is Mr. Käfer who was born in Salzburg, Austria with family ties in Algeria. He lives in Cologne where he fuses boom-bap & jazz with North-African music. The pair's new single sees a sleepy beat drag along a wicked groove-heavy bass line, allowing mellow keyboard to follow suit. Phlocalyst's trumpet moves around luxuriant jazzy melodies, whilst Sátyr’s guitar riffs joins, adding a spacious, psychedelic feel. Check it out! -Ellie Rose-Davies
