Take returns with a bonus EP featuring remixes from the album and all new exclusive off kilter, future bangers.
The “Plus Ultra EP” picks up where the highly coveted “ Earthtones & Concrete” left off. This time however Take has brought his friends along for some incredible remixes and collaborations. From futuristic machine click hop, to grimy Detroit-influenced bass-heavy bangers, to heavy psychedelic up-tempo goodies, its all here.
First up is “ Slouched Over’ which is undeniably the hit track off off “Earthtones and Concrete” LP. The demand for a 12” release was relentless, so here it is. Next up, is an amazing collaboration between Take and young London beat maestro Lukid (Werk Records). The result is nothing short of epic. A mid tempo heater, with an off-kilter sway and a minimalist approach that brings to mind a cold winters day in Cologne, Germany.
Included next is the instrumental version of “Dream Suite”, from the “ Earhtones and Concrete” release, which featured MC Dutchmassive. The instrumental version is only available here.
Side A finishes off with the grimy hard-hitting sounds of RAS G (Poobah Records), remixing “Golden Gate Reflections.” Ras takes the original and completely flips it putting his signature swing on things resulting in a sound reminiscent of dirty broken robots dancing in the sun.
The B side starts off with a brand new track from Take. “Bee Sting” is a blunted up-tempo number that buzzes with a dirty 80s electro vibe. Swaying back and forth with elements of psych, jazz, and lo-fi house while all along building up momentum. The 2nd track on the B- Side comes courtesy of Daedelus (Ninja Tune, Plug Research).
