March 2012ARCHIVE
GENUINE FAKES is back in action with the “Weather The Storm EP”. These three top shelf tracks are all brand-spanking new and inspired by the weather. First on deck, is ‘Hurricane’. Genuine Fakes takes a cue from Bristol-UK band MASSIVE ATTACK, and unleashes a windstorm of trip hop with a male vocal you won’t forget. The second tune is ‘Electric Wind’, which is sprinkled with a turbine-driven piano line. The jazz-inspired ‘Swinggy Fog’ keeps things hazy and upbeat and fills out the EP. All three of these tracks are foresight of what to expect on his next album. Lastly, the ever-present label-boss DJ 19, reconstructs ‘Hurricane’ by layering additional rhythms that lean more toward being a re-edit than a remix.
