Two years after the seminal Heard was released, Tom Bailey AKA International Observer returns today with eleven more slices of delectable dub drenched delights, designed to bother bassbins worldwide.
Aside from his opening take on the classic, House of the Rising Sun, Felt is an altogether deeper excursion into bass than its predecessors: beats are sparser, the basslines heavier and the subject matter darker: Lampedusa, for example, is inspired by the refugees held in camps on the Italian island of the same name, physically only breaths away from freedom, but practically miles apart.
It is still a joyful affair though, with tracks peppered by his trademark horns and guitar riffs. Plus Popcorn Slavery is as near to his playful pop past as electronic dub is able to go.
A welcome addition to the Observer collection, then, building on the lush ambience of Seen and the good grooves of Heard.
You can check the album out in full at:

or

and, as with all dubmission releases, you can buy it direct from the label for £6.49 + p&p from:

Yeah, I've got the last one. It was quite good. Seen is also good.
Definitely gonna grab this one when i get a chance, and when i have some spare deniros.
The house of the rising sun version is sure to be a cracker... i have loved that song for 20 years! (man, saying that makes me feel old). |
