requesting that their identities remain unknown, the enigmatic dr.
ludlow & mr. smith mark their collaborative debut for fat cat with
a potentially massive 4-track ep.
based around a (depth charge-y) western atmosphere, ricocheting
gunshots and classic widescreen samples, æuglyÆ offers a
staggering, seriously radio / dancefloor-friendly take on
morricione, complete with some stunning stereo-programming. on a
mellower vibe, æhankÆ is a cut-up æ90s re-hash of a slick, sleazy
æ70s porno-funk track and squirming and sliding with dirty intent.
besides these two storming tracks are a further two that highlight
the humourous side of ludlow & smithÆs persona: æi hope you like
miceÆ is comprised entirely of rolf harris samples, to form a
hilarious, collapsing space of coughs, wheezes, splutters and
chopped-up vocals. in keeping with grainÆs two fat cat releases,
æneil phones clive via akaiÆ is a confused essay in the art of the
telephone wind-up.
despite their undercover status, æprofessor says raasÆ should (if
thereÆs any justice) provide ludlow & smith with some serious
dancefloor status.
