The Library Archive ft. The Sorcerers
Kaunas Baltic Connect feat. The Sorcerers harks back to the dynamic, brooding menace of Poliziotteschi and Euro-crime movies – popping toms punctuate a martial-sounding 60s beat, with an insistent and recurring piano motif. The Sorcerers' influences are layered throughout, from the spectral synth chords lurking in the background and Farfisa organ melody to the eventual entry of The Sorcerers horns in all their full glory – flute and baritone saxophone to the fore. Fans of Ennio Morricone's score to Pontecorvo's Battle of Algiers will also find a lot to enjoy here.
Baby, I Don't Care is reminiscent of shamelessly groovy releases from The Lewis Express, featuring a joyful slice of Hammond organ blues dancing away over the funkiest drums this side of Clyde Stubblefield – replete with congas and bongos from ATA Studios stalwart, Danny Templeman. This has all the hallmarks of a new club favourite – definitely one for the DJs – or cue it up at your next house party.
