Following on from the release of David K’s well-received Sneakers & Playground EP, the unnerving pairing of Nico & Pherox (aka Tim Querengaesser) return with a record that is veiled by in a dark and mysterious shroud. Nico (previously known as Verena) is a young and fresh female artist, influenced from an early age by the classical work of her father (who worked as a music composer), whilst Pherox is a more familiar presence in today’s deep clubbing landscape, having released on Mupa, Catenaccio, Dumb Unit, Stock5 and his very own label, Slash.  On this EP, the pair explore a broad palette of sounds, taking in Italian Horror film-esque chords, chopped and screwed vocal samples, rolling basslines, soothsaying vocals, drawn out fog horn stabs. This is deep music; flavoured by the nocturnal, tinted by the eighties, and ultimately full of originality.
