Remix – Navs

Dublin’s Splitradix delivers an EP of intense and melancholic acid / braindance with plenty of «light in darkness» to quote Yellow Magic Orchestra. Opener Laplace Formal is a moody, hyper melodic piece for a dreamy dance floor. The oddly titled second track, The Dry Canal, is the centerpiece of the EP. Dry, deep and stomping acid taking you through a tunnel of sound – the two dark droney melody lines slowly but surely turn the piece into something truly epic and unforgettable… Opening the flipside, Empty Sea 1000 is a slow, lazy acid cut from another dimension, very nice! Lucan 303 Distribution Service is heavy on the kick. Basic at first, it later turns into a wonderfully melodic Rephlex-like cut. Last one, Laplace Formal (Navs’ No Jacket Required Remix) is a laidback and more euphoric version of the EP’s opening track.
