LEE 'SCRATCH' VS. PERRY
LIKE THE WAY YOU SHOULD
The latest instalment in the on-going Lee Perry remix series is the long-awaited dubplate with Mala DMZ at the controls. A-side "Like the Way You Should" finds LSP crooning the track's title through a lattice-work of intricately constructed rhythms, while ringing piano chords chime, synths mesh in shifting layers, and a deep half-time beat fuels irresistible forward motion. On the flip, "Obeah Room" drills down into harder strata, striking a seam of dense drum hits that surfaces in a stop-start pattern, driven ominous sub-bass swells that sound like they're being extruded from the planet's very own sub-mantle magma. Strictly limited pressing of 1500 copies. |
