| | Description: | Born Daniel Stephens, le Sac has always been an astute and often original craftsman. He??s
varied his output with Pip, too, laying down productions taking in lad-house, alt-rap and
nightmarish soundscape characteristics.
This debut solo album??s opener, Long Night of Life, has the tone of a lost UNKLE track, with
folker Merz providing a resolute vocal that??s half-Springsteen, half-Yorke. Unexpected
punch midway through pushes the song??s momentum on winningly, tinkling piano riffs
joined by swift, windswept synths.
Conversely, Play Along has an uncommon carnival-edged bounce more akin to a track from
Nightmares on Wax??s thought so? album, albeit with a harder electronic edge. Judging by
her auspicious, caramel vocal on the track, up-and-coming singer Sarah Williams White will
soon be familiar to a wider audience.
For a further change of tack, anti-folk trooper Emmy the Great proffers a tantalising vocal
that recalls Portishead??s doom-chanteuse Beth Gibbons on the shivery, tormented Memorial.
??Love is on its knees, bury it at sea,? she sings, as, somewhere, a wolf cowers. It??s spooky in
the best possible sense.
Fiercer numbers shoot the album in different directions, but everything works. Regular tour
support B. Dolan is on board for the jump-up party electro of Good Time Gang War, while
poet and le Sac pal Joshua Idehen spits witty lines over Tuning.
If that wasn??t enough, Break of Dawn is a mournful cover of Rhythm on the Loose??s oldschool
house anthem (itself modelled on First Choice??s disco classic Let Know Man Put
Asunder), while the album ends with a poignant and percussively sensational version of Arab
Strap??s Cherubs.
To his immense credit le Sac has unleashed a wealth of first-rate ideas in the studio. He??s
utilised his guest vocalists to such a remarkably varied and interesting extent that Pip??s
superlative way with a lyric is barely missed - 180 Gram Vinyl. | | | No. of tracks: |
