NEW MOON / TRAVEL (INSTRUMENTAL) by ALMUNIA

New Claremont act Almunia bring us their debut 12” for the label as a precursor to their album. Check!!Side-A offers up ‘New Moon’ a subtle, atmospheric slo-mo jam, with sparkling guitar lines and a hefty throb in the bottom end, added Floyd-esque touches and weird out vocals bring a nice psychedelic touch. Over on Side B, the instrumental version of ‘Travel’ packs a slightly weightier punch, with a sluggish bass and beats combo this one nods along in a chunky electro-boogie-rock fashion, layers of FX guitar and a slightly moody air all add to the flavour.
