larry quest: rear light ep
Lisbon’s Larry Quest joins the Pleasure of Love crew with an impressive sonic journey of all things house, balearic, and tribal entitled Rear Light EP. After releases on Delusions of Grandeur, Percebes Música and Log Records, Quest delivers his most refined EP yet, harnessing his knack for live/analog synthesis & soulful, hypnotic grooves.
”Blue Tide” kicks off the EP with a wave of pads and deep sax soulfulness before giving way to a bubbly, modular groove. “Hold Function” finds Larry Quest exploring a tribal, almost trance-y take on Detroit techno/house foundations. In the title track the Lisbon-based producer eases into a throwback of mid-90s house vibes with bursts of M1 organ and Rhodes stabs, rounding thing off with “Wave Ring”, and its steady progression of good taste selections for the synths, each one of them detailed and alive.
