Releases from artist / Veröffentlichungen von : The Expansions

debut single breakthrough introduced the insanely catchy but deeply soulful blend of synths and groove, but here on the album that is explored to the fullest with longer breakdowns and more expansive, experimental solos. pocket 5 displays the, possibly unexpected, influences of broken beat and almost combative rhythm playing - particularly in the complex guitar and keys breakdown where koor and o keefe layer conflicting time signatures and battle to ride it out to the heavy drum return.

drawing influences from herbie hancock, idris muhammad and grover washington. the single version of breakthrough is a unique, single-take arrangement of the full-length track from the forthcoming lp murmuration. a backbone of hip-hop-breaks influenced beats, accompanied by a jazz-funk infused sound played by some of the most in-demand players in the country.
