As is to be expected from two producers who are well respected for creating a varied style, this collaborative EP from Jay Lumen & Gary Beck contains two tracks that show the ever-broadening scope of the Drumcode catalogue. ‘Lotus’ remains truest to the core Drumcode values of dance floor functionality with a mechanical, slow-burning groove steadily working up to a huge cavernous peak with sweeping melodic echoes and drawn out chord. ‘Strange Fruit’ flips the mood entirely to create a more ‘open air’ summertime vibe with a swinging percussive tech house aesthetic animated further by dynamic arrangement and driven along by an undeniably infectious bouncing groove.
