Gasp EP on 12" Single

Aus Music follows Bicep's Just EP (AUS 1580EP, 2015) with the first contribution to the label since November 2013 (AUS 1354EP) by London-via-Glasgow producer Sei A, who has also released on Turbo, Kompakt, and Hemlock. Fans of Make It Work and Wants will relish the Gasp EP, as it melds moody, syncopated grooves with nifty vocal snips and capacious breakdowns. The title-track's arresting loop gathers percussive whacks and prowling bass; the sizzling hi-hats of Never Wander accompany mournful chords spread over sharp electric bass; the tape-driven texture of 4ME2 unfolds behind rasping bass tones and vast, heart-rending chord shifts.
