The awesome Allcity 7" series brings itself to a close with this
brilliant installment from french beat maker Onra laying down two tracks
of typically esoteric yet devastating club joints. Onra is probably best
known for his instrumental travelogue 'Chinioseries' last year for
Favourite recordings, a masterful trip into the art of keen eared
sampling with a heavy lean on South Asian and Vietnamese music. Crafted
for the A-side, 'My Comet' is a neat nugget of scuzzy instro grindbeats
with a psychy wooze that has been shot through the best tracks from this
series. But our favourite has to be 'Shhhhhhh' on the flip, craftily
utilising the same sample as the first Thriller 12" and almost acting as
an another alternative edit to one of our favourite tracks of the year,
by applying head swimming FX to a double dope and as yet unknown electro
soul sample, saving some extra funked synth noodling for this version to
make it worth your while. We've no idea what Allcity are up to next, but
if it's half as good as this series, we'll be well on top of it. Tip!
