Still guaranteed to spark a shudder in the old teabags, Silicone Soul are celebrating a decade making some of the most forward-thinking house music of all time by releasing what some are calling their best album yet. As a trailer comes this utterly cool excursion into a dreamy dimension they’ve made their own as a deeply resonant late 80s-style bassline sets the ball rolling for intertwining layers of mindblowing electronic space-snakes, disembodied voices and ethereal melodies to uncurl and intertwine, creating a uniquely-gorgeous mood raraely encountered in dance music. Ripperton’s remix toughens the groove, beefs the percussion and introduces horse’s stiffie rampage action to drive the floor into all manner of chaos. Silicon Soul and Soma: the world would be a much poorer place without both of them.
