Phonica Special Editions� first release for 2013 comes courtesy of new signing Sad City. Northern Irish born, Glasgow-based Gary Caruth might not be a household name just yet, but with an EP on cult US imprint Underwater Peoples already under his belt, it�s safe to say he�s destined for great things. His release for our Special Editions offshoot, is a magnificent four tracker of swirling synths, subtle detailing and melodic bliss. It kicks off with the reverb-drenched, hazy atmospherics of �Polymath� and the trippy glockenspiel-inspired melodies of �Easing� which recalls some of Four Tet�s early output (definitely a good thing in our books!). Then it�s straight over to the dream-like 10 minute journey that is �What I Talk About�, with the EP rounded off perfectly with the Steve Reich-esque title track, �You Will Soon Find That Life Is Wonderful�. The EP is packaged in wonderful artwork by acclaimed London designer Jack Featherstone.
