Best New Music: Drones Club – ‘It Rolls On’ / ‘Cabin Pressure’
‘Drones Club’ is a truly fitting title for the repetitive and addictive kraut and dance-inspired music of this mysterious new act. Thumping kicks and sequenced arpeggios underpin murky, spoken mantras on tracks like ‘It Rolls On’, which could happily roll on forever as it’s subtle dynamics grow more and more stimulating without ever breaking a sweat. Then ‘Cabin Pressure’ follows suit with a summery mix of hazy chords and splashing hi-hats that evoke images of beachy sunsets and digital paradises. It’s a sublime sound that will be droning on in my head for days.
