DP – Reworks Vol 2

Description

Medicine Music offer us a remedy, but not a cure, for a chronic ailment of ours: for some reason we simply cannot shake the compulsion to seek out disco edits in quadruply combined pill form. The second volume in Dr. Packer’s own reworks series, this new’un follows the first edition released far back in 2017. ‘Hint Of Love’ and ‘Watch Your Back’ span nouveau riche falsettos and dirt-caked soul baritones respectively, proving the polyphonic potential of disco’s voices despite the unknowability of the samples so sourced. ‘Chesty Lady Of The West’ is meanwhile the perkiest tune on the record, curling through a minimal, backwashy sound, where guitars soar gleefully in a surfy space above the 10th fret.
