After a winter break and a with new focus on original and forward thinking house, boe is back for 2009 with one of the hottest Detroit artists to break onto the scene in years. Kris Wadsworth is a man who truly has his own unique production style. For years the term “minimal� has been banded about for music with little soul, originality and that essence of dance music, a groove. Kris is a guy whose interpretation of minimalistic music oozes all of these qualities and much, much more; Stripped down, funked up house that takes the listener back to when house was raw, full of energy and brimming with soul. His production resembles that of an early Herbert, crunching and twisting his way though drum samples and polished chords to create a sound that is simple and intoxicating yet difficult to copy. Less, it seems, is most definitely more.
“Dig� is Kris’ first four-track EP and showcases his sound through four slices of deep, groovy late night house. The first track “The Depths Of� is Kris’ sound summed up in just under nine minutes. The first three minutes belong to a long intro that builds and builds through vox snippets, stab samples, synth chords and h-hats that ride the groove. The track breaks down only to kick back in with a chunky snare and trippy pads to whip the listener into a frenzy. “Macrotones� is a wonky late night rhythm synth track that wouldn’t sound out of place at Fabric at 7am. On the flip, “White Bread� kicks off where “The Depths Of� left off, a catchy rhythm with swinging stabs and moody chords. A growling, gut-moving baseline makes the track a real dance floor favourite. The final track on the EP is “Haunted House� a deep houser with a delayed bassline perfect for those late-night moments.
