Album Info

Following his 2005 debut album on Fluxion’s Vibrant Music imprint, Pridon returns with this next instalment, a five track EP on our label. The EP also comes with a bonus remix by Peekay Tayloh (Poeta Negra Records). Made for the most part at Pridon’s old wind-lashed seaside street in Brighton (from which the title is borrowed), “New Steine” is the result of Pridon’s attempt to compose music that connects the fragmented pieces of his music listening experience. In doing so, he is diving into the roots of his palette, with an emphasis on compositional structure, creating hybrids that unfold linearly in a skillful and surprising way. The EP opens with “Caretta”, where the off-kilter hip hop rhythm and burbling, cascading synth lines give way to glissando acid lines, which snake around a fortified rhythm section as gloomy dissonant ambiences encroach. Pridon’s interest in sonic synthesis and in creating detailed movement of sound is evident from track one, as he operates in microworld and macroworld with a confident flair, utilising found sounds to add feel to his rhythm sections and successfully interlocks layers of melodic and rhythmic parts. “Sortman Tales”, with it’s snare that sounds reminiscent of a bucket of water (or lego?) being chucked against a wall, “Scruffy”’s frantic IDM/Detroit techno mergence and the bittersweet, funky slo-mo rave of “Relax” make this EP a rich and rewarding listen. Peekay Tayloh’s heavily reworked version of the preceding track finishes off the EP, with it’s water colour sonic washes and spindly pitter-patter rhythms.
