This project is built out of a long history of writing music together and shared loves.It's an out and out dancefloor record but with enough left field influences and grit to stand out as something of an anomaly.The Pennines EP references their upbringing in Weardale in the North Pennines. Pennines opens the EP with strong swung rhythm and develops with a monster synth arp 133G has more of a techy edge before a melodic line coupled with a pitching sub bass come to the forefront Beck's Brew uses jazz influenced sounds to build before dropping in to a repeating vocal and a floor filling drumbeat The Peace Signal closes, lulling the listener in to a false sense of security with the lightest of chimes before dropping a dark and raspy bassline. Out early 2014 on Ross' Snowfall label with more EPs to come. Expect to see the pair DJing far and wide in the near future
