THE LONG TITLES EP by LAY-FAR

Disco & funk infused house release by Moscows Lay-Far!Hot off the tails of his “So Many Ways” LP, here we see him dishing up 3 low slung funked-out house workouts which will find a home on any discernible dancefloor. On the A side we start with “That voice from far away”, a great meld of perfect house chords and disco elements with the cowbell groove keeping it in check. The ethereal vocal patterns create a dubbed out deep essence which reminds me of some of Nick Holders best work. On the flip we start with “Where I’ve never been before” a jacking harlem funk groove that builds up the layers of chords and intricate percussion and then interweaves them with vocal skits and and funked out guitar riff. A great tune that would certainly not be out of place on a Raw Cuts record. We finish with my personal favorite “You know I’m Gonna Getcha”. A gorgeous blend of samba rhythms, deep chords and rhodes keys. All juxtapositioned next to perfectly layered vocal samples and chants. It all builds to a break with a live recorded crowd pushing the tune to its conclusion.
