From the opening strains of Beat Pharmacy’s “New Dawn” and its skanking guitar you’ll quickly catch onto just what Deep Space is all about, and once the Echo Chamber comes into effect there wont be any doubt. Francois K. takes a side step to explore his numerous influences which range from reggae to afro rhythms all of which lay the foundation of his Monday night NYC residency of the same name. But be aware if you’re expecting soothing songs or sweet melodies you’re in the wrong place as a set of varying tempo’s and artists from Ska favourites The Skatalites to Jeff Mills to the electro-funkiness of Chicken Lips all take centre stage. Go on, broaden your horizons.
