Last Pines – Solon EP

Following a masterful release from Dubfound, Ukrainian label Modeight is back again with another superb 12″. This time it’s UK brotherly duo Clay & Heath Ostrer, also known as Last Pines who are centre stage. The pair serving up 4 silky smooth, and seductively deep minimalist house tracks. The A-side kicks off with and title cut “Solon” as it delves deeper with its bumping, low slung attitude. A certified bass face initiator featuring a cheeky nod to the Matrix. Followed by A2’s “Drift”, a hazy, funk infused roller that meanders effortlessly below some echoed brass. A flip to the B-side and we continue with “Nocturnal”, a darkly hued, warehouse worthy jam, featuring raspy, robotic vocal samples and tonal overlays. Finally we finish with B2’s “Go Ahead”, a badass banger with a supreme subsonic undercarriage that takes no prisoners. Always in fine form with their artist selection, Modeight provides the gold once more.
