Kepler 8211 Retro Future

Media Condition: Very Good + Sleeve Condition:Very Good + Hot on the heels of his first outing on Constant Sound, rising star Kepler (real name Matthew Farrow) makes his first appearance on Sukhumvit. The Retro Future EP is well named, because you\’ll find plenty of vintage influences and good, old-fashioned inspirations amongst the four tracks on show. Bustling opener \’Pickled\’ adds mid-90s Korg M1 organ sounds, saucer-eyed ambient house chords and Orbital style melodies to an energetic, non-stop groove, while \’Out of Time\’ offers a similar blend of 1990s house sounds and contemporary club weight. Over on the reverse, \’Groove Breakfast\’ joins the dots between Italian piano house and mid-90s NYC house, before Kepler rounds things off with the sub-heavy snap and celestial synthesizer riffs of US garage-influenced roller \’In The Loft\’.
