Star Creatures' Global Caress hits us a brand new 12" by Asene, descirbed as a "slammin' sophmore EP from NYC via Chicago's Rookie Of The Year! And he's Belgian!
Phew, at least it's not the most famous Arsene that we know but this 4 tracker that follows last years' 'Jack Shit' / 'The Breeze Of Your Shirt'; indeed Arsene Zaninotto slips into the Global Caress's recent jackin' scene following Fugitive Artifact's latest 7" (see review HERE) and it's more than a feeling that it's going to take over the world (again).
As they say, the "Belgian Bruiser returns ... this new projects shows clear forensic evidence the newcomer is no stranger to the sound and feel of the East Coast Underground - I'm not talking about bridge and tunnel house. Don't be Nervous - pick up doubles of these New Grooves or be left Strictly behind (Ed. did you see what they did there?)
'Hot Sweaty Nights' is born out of the jazz-house groove where a "Windy City CTA commuter" sits so well next to the NYC train transit of Zachery Burns (see review HERE); especially as the '1-55' picks up speed and a vibe, perhaps even a squeaky wheel?
If you don't know Arsene, this is good place to start.
