bnjmn: hummingbird

BNJMN pops up with another splendid and relevant EP, featuring a remix from Legowelt/Xosar combo, Xamiga. On this 12", BNJMN was inspired by the curious combination of speed and grace that is the humble hummingbird. Propelled forwards by a lone, 140 BPM kick drum, the title-track's waves of crystalline synthesizers and picturesque melodies seem to gracefully hover above the stripped-back rhythm, and Xamiga's remix delivers a deeper, hazier alternative. "Slow Wave" performs the same trick of the ear, while The melancholic "CRVD " is similarly schizophrenic.
