The Skater's Spencer Clark takes Matt Mondanile ov Ducktails as his co-pilot on a new mystical journey through time and space..
.
Egyptian Sports Network , the result of this holy union, brings out the more krauty, futuristic side of the two. Like any Spencer Clark release, 'Interstitial Luxor' comes with its fair share of custom-made sci-fi: in this case the five tracks are part of a Zero Gravity Sports network soundtrack being transmitted from the Olympic Space Station via satellite feed directly into our minds.
Drums pulsate through fuzzy clouds of spaced-out synths and restless robot oscillators, amounting to syncopated rhythms with a Terry Riley sheen. Wailing exotic flutes summon the spirits of astral Nubian kings and queens, while modern muzak melodies flutter in the background, creating a sort of esoteric teleprompter fantasy.
Ducktails' pop sensitivities create a perfect counterpoint to Spencer's meditative approach, building catchy, convoluted melodies together. You hear a punchy baseline transforming the otherwise ethereal 'Egyptian Sports Network' into an alien space-station TV network anthem or the rapid cuts in the upbeat 'Jai-Lai Nightclub' oozing Andromeda Galaxy dancefloor potential.'Leo in Cyan', featuring Emerald's Mark McGuire, ends the transmission with a hypnotic, android snake-charmer tune dripping with past-life nostalgia.
Think of it as intergalactic minimalism, dipped into '70s nostalgia and sprinkled with hazy memories of library music, truly enchanting.
