Atlanta's Damon Fonooni has been producing for a little while now, collaborating
on occasion with his friend Brett Abramson (aka DJ Numinous) on labels such as
Music Is Freedom and their own Blueprint Recordings. However, more recently
Habersham has been branching out on his own, and after a few low key minor
releases that received variable support, has really turned up the heat resulting
in material like these two dynamite numbers, "Transparent Sound" and "Follow The
White Rabbit" which after hearing were quickly snapped up by Dave Seaman on his
Audiotherapy label. Spooky chimes and chords lend a spine chilling and haunting
introduction to the first track "Transparent Sound". As each layer of melody
creeps it's way in, a new main section begins to appear, and rumbling bass and
beats soon jostle for attention against the constant chimes that rain down upon
the groove. A solid bassline repeats itself, swelling until it interrupts the
rest of the track and changes the direction of the track, taking it down a
stomping 4/4 route where eastern style influences become apparent, but it's when
the sub bass section comes in toward the end of the track and the melody is left
to it's own devices that this track really slams. A gorgeous set opener that
emerges from it's cocoon into a dynamic straight and breakbeat hybrid, hinting
at a deeper diversity to Habersham's production skills. "Follow The White
Rabbit" almost defies description. Fierce breakbeat rhythms and electronic stabs
come together head on, the resulting soundscape being very unique. No hint of
melody in this monster, just wild bass flanges and trippy rhythm sections, with
futuristic computer sounding effects fluttering away at various points
throughout. Just when you think it's done it's damage, it comes back and kicks
you in the nuts when you least expect it. Make no doubt about it, Habersham is
the sadistic school bully your mother warned you about, and he's coming to kick
your ass just because he can. Both tracks bring the goods in their own unique
way, and show exactly why Habersham is set to become one of the biggest names
over the next few months, so you can either take the blue pill and pass this by,
or take the red pill, and be able to say you knew about one of Atlanta's best
kept secrets long before the rest of the world catches on.
