john heckle: baiyun mountain

The Baiyun Mountain EP is John Heckle's debut appearance on M>O>S Recordings. Heckle has more than established himself as a lone sonic explorer thanks to releases on labels like Mathematics and Creme Organization. Across these three tracks, he lays out his dense and textured vision of house music once more. "Cactus Jack" is a writhing thing with coarse snares, wild acid gurgles and plenty of paranoid synth lines. "Birds with Vertigo" is another gauzy affair where every bit of sound is filled with fuzz, analog rawness or splintered percussion. "Baiyun Mountain" features springy metallic synths, ticking percussion and a supple bass line all wrapping around each other.
