LAPDepression EP
Our favourite LA-based Brazilian madman and all round bass music connoisseur, Oxossi, is back on DDD - this time ready to lay down the law and release his manifesto for counter culture in EP format, with the cheerily puntastic 'LAPDepression'. Don't get it bent, this EP is more psychologically testing than a 24 hour interrogation from Carrie Mathison - yet there is so much musical depth, with organic and authentic instrumentation running throughout - with Arabesque touches a recurring theme. With opener Return's off-kilter syncopated and time signature bending guitar riff, you could be fooled that you were listening to Tool, yet on the title track you are entering full snake charmer mode - before the haunting interlude leads you into the police holding cell of Fly On the Wall ahead of System Error - which slaps you senseless as the EP reaches its finale. Ready to take a trip to a pit of snakes infested with rabid dogs? LAPDepression is a one way street of musically rich, mental torture. Respect Oxossi's badge - he's reinventing what it means to fight crime. This one's revolutionary.
