Warpfan If you like mid-90s Warp/Skam records electronic wizardry, you will love this album. Neil Scrivin is a cassette-tape splicing genius, and has created an album of interplanetary electronic funk - with liquid drum and bass as a distant cousin. Tracks #1, #2, #5, and #8 are brighter tunes, while the rest are moodier soundtracks. To dive right onto the dancefloor, go to 2:30 in Cassential and let it ride. (Then go buy PG's first album, Chrome Position, which throws some BoC into the mix). Favorite track: Cassential.

Xero Wow, that’s some breathtaking stuff. All of it. Couldn’t have asked for a better exploration this morning. You have a wonder vision.

Thank you for this passage. Favorite track: Cassential.

jmžx This LP reminds me of every fun moment in my life. Evocative!

80s Ladies Outstanding. Absolutely fucking outstanding. Favorite track: Cassential.

Virtually Yours Neil is nestling into his own sound away from VHS Head(He was coproduction of) and it sounds lovely. Nice sultry grooves that float among the branches of Vaporwave, Cut up Electro breaks, 80s/90s R&B dissection, BOC hiphop and the aforementioned sound. Delectable slow funk with chunky bits. Molasses funk. Favorite track: Hear Me Read My Genetic Chirpy Chip.

amc Gold, gold, gold Favorite track: Dramakai.

about

Phono Ghosts returns with ‘Photons in Fashion’ featuring eight new tracks of intricately spliced tape samples, continuing the psychedelic eclectic sound that marked out his previous releases on Fonolith (Solar Dream Reel) and Skam (Chrome Position).

Over 30 minutes, ‘Photons in Fashion’ careers between the forceful ‘80s digi-funk blast of ‘Cassential’, space-lounge groove of ‘Binary Dynamics’ and hypnotic disco of the title track; progressing through to the brooding ‘Dramakai’ and slinky fretless bass of ‘Observatory of the Soul’, interspersed with dream-like fragmentary interludes, before closing out with the idiosyncratic synth bleeping of ‘Hear Me Read My Genetic Chirpy Chip’.

"With every move Phono Ghosts makes, the funkiness gets upped and twisted, his cut and paste aesthetic becoming an integral part of the groove. Indeed ‘Binary Dynamics’ is leisurely dance for the cool kids, while the title track is wonderfully beat driven to the point of collapsing in on itself. Very assured." Ian Abraham - Electronic Sound
