mosca: a thousand years' wait

Ann Aimee has readied its next release from UK tastemaker and Radio 1 presenter Mosca. First up is "It's Not What It Looks Like" -- a hunched over, industrial-tinged house groove with rattling percussion and a heavy kick drum. Full of grainy textures and clanging machines, the whole thing is backlit with serene pads and smeared with deft synth patterns. "Kneecap" features off-kilter chords bringing a sense of paranoia to the barreling beats and bristling percussion. "Press Up" is a bit of deep and atmospheric house, smoothed over with misty textures and a bottled-up sense of funk. Cover artwork by Boris Tellegen.
