Kassem Mosse returns with a first new album in what feels like years, brimming with deep, woodcut rhythms and a puckered jazz-house playfulness.
‘Workshop 32’ is KM'’s first solo LP, proper, since the relatively uptempo gait of 2017’s ‘Chilazon Garden’. Since then, the producer has busied himself with an album as Seltene Erden for YOUTH and work as Flights and DJ Residue for TTT, but these 10 new tracks are a return to what made him such a cult lo-fi house and techno figurehead over a decade ago; sprouting an hour of hypnotic, frayed drums and peppery rhythmelody that wanders off from the wonky grids of Theo Parrish or Jamie Hodge with his own brand of groggy strut.
Purpose-built for half-cut heads elegantly teetering on wasted legs, the whole set seems to bask in a sort of perpetual half-light of the party. Bony rhythms and spangled hooks suggest - rather than force - bodies in motion with a poetic nimbleness under the hood that shows up so many lo-fi house interlopers in comparison.
The 10 trax dance in and out the lines with a deeply satisfying, hands-on tekkerz; zigzagging from A1’s bleep house jazz to uptempo offerings at the altar of Theo in A2, and skudged beatdown of A3, thru to wigged out funk of B1 and a killer lather of scatting soul vox and scuffed drums on C1, while gathering proper club momentum on C2 and D1, and cutting deeper with the lissom cat’s cradle of strings and splintered rhythms in D2 and the superb closer ‘Provide Those Ends’. Class.
