Dark Humor

Released

The ghost of footwork is in here, and this may simply be that—footwork ghosts, clattering on the tombs of dance music. There are horror movie laughs and short tail delay pops, statement song titles (“Don’t Want No Dick”) and spinning top samples of upright bass. This is the sampler as a straight tap into the rich chaos of dreamtime.
