Toomy Disco - Always Awake EP

Toomy Disco, I've only just found out, is a mere 22 years old. Which seems incredible, given the huge waves he's managed to make on the nu-disco scene over the past few years. Here he is again with another excellent offering, coming this time on that home of excellent nu-disco offerings, Nang Records.

Always Awake itself is a throbbing, Balearic-tinged affair, with analogue synth sounds and some phat bass giving the track a real sense of urgency. Life Care is in a similar vein overall but this time featuring some spaced-out geetars and even more sense of impending drama – The Time & Space Machine would be proud! – while finally White Clouds veers into Havlicek-esque Italo territory, but with those psychedelic guitars also in full effect.

So, typical Nang fare in a word… but then from my comments above, you can probably guess I'm not seeing that as a bad thing!

Out: This week
