outboxx: rumours

Bristol duo Outboxx return with their trademark low-slung house sounds, and another collaboration with vocalist and lyricist, Naomi Jeremy. Sealing the release is a remix from Detroit's Andrés. The original mix of "Rumours" opens with a slugged out beat, spaceship pads and the vocal prowess of Naomi Jeremy. The signature sound of remixer Andrés is stamped all over his version as he gently adjusts elements of the original, putting a greater focus on the scintillating pads and offering a beach-side alternative. "So Strong" provides a cool end to a coherent release, with well-poised keys combined with finely crafted ambient tones.
