premiere: Yard One - Munte [Tact Recordings]

@yard-one-music return to @tact-recordings late July with the four-track ‘Neuroglow’ EP, showcasing the duo’s take on hypnotic house and techno.

Over the past decade Jordan Bruce and Larry Jones aka Yard One have been etching their mark into contemporary electronic music, releasing material on the likes of Philipp Priebe’s Stólar, Tokyo’s Sound Of Vast, Cinthie’s Collective Cuts, Malin Genie’s Vigenère, Apparel Music’s Tronic sub-label, Yama Music and of course the co-founded alongside Fletcher, Tactics and Tact Recordings where they return here.

Opening the EP is ‘Munte’ a tribal tinged jam fuelled by organic drums, twitchy percussive elements, oscillating subs, airy chord sequences, dubbed out swells and arpeggio acid-laced bass flutters. ‘Dazed’ follows next and leans into the duo’s deeper side courtesy of swirling textural elements, jazzy, delayed piano lines and a heavily swung rhythm section.

‘Synapse’ follows next, exploring the pairs love for the deeper end of the Techno spectrum as billowing atmospherics, cinematic strings and sporadic bass notes ebb and flow atop a robust drum groove. ‘Orexis’ then concludes the EP, embracing a more microhouse aesthetic with a focus on intricately intertwined, shuffled percussion while breathy pads, rumbling low end pulsations and murky echoes further fuel the subtly shifting loop-led vibe.
