mehony That guitar sound makes my spine shaking... Favorite track: Nightlife Blues.

Feyrey I love your sound from Circadian Rhythms. Every track has it's own unpredictable groove which makes we ready to wave my head a bit. Also a bit overdrive sound is definitely my thing (= Favorite track: Dad's Old Tapes.

about

The eighth release from the Dama Dama imprint is another offering from the elusive band North Downs. This time with a full EP titled Dad’s Old Tapes’. The release comes following on from the bands well-received debut single - ‘Plastic Clouds’.

North Downs was born in a run-down barn in the wintery English countryside, the lovechild of a Delta-Blues man and a London raver marrying the sounds of the organic and the synthetic. There’s a wonderful clarity in this unique fusion. It’s genre-blended, but each ingredient works independently, fixating you on the journey.

The collaborative nature of how this music is produced is paramount. On this EP alone, those with more discerning ears may pick up elements of fellow artists such as Khruangbin, Jake Bright, Dan Chappell, Andreya Triana and of course Maribou State – creating a melting pot of talent with North Downs at the helm.

Released on December 5th, as well as digital format, the EP will also be cut on 100 limited edition hand stamped 12” vinyls. Available to buy on the Dama Dama Bandcamp page.

Like so many others, this came like a bolt out of the blue and, even though it's well before payday, I had to have this astonishing album on vinyl to prove it exists. The feel of the tunes makes me feel like the Impressions do, Curtis Mayfield, the big spaces and instinctive horns and stuff drifting in and out. Great grooves and I can see lots of ghosts nodding along to this with big smiles on their faces. At last! Anthony Cottrell
