| Keto - Change/Otherside |
Release Date: 23rd February 2015
This is the debut offering from
Nottingham collective Keto and even without hearing a note, the artwork tells
me that I'm going to like these folks. A-side 'Change' is a sultry, slow-beat
of a song that does as much to seduce the senses as it does to put you on edge.
Elements of Massive Attack, 12 Rounds, Portishead, the Noisettes and Moloko all
mingle to make a sound that you could slow dance to but keep an eye on your
dance partner - they might just have a dagger concealed about their person. The
aptly named 'Otherside' is the B-side is a more directly dark affair as angular
guitars mix with chilled out beats and Bond-esque strings to create a
masterpiece of cinematic stature - far too impressive for a B-side. Critical
acclaim surely awaits for this talented quartet but whether commercial success
follows will be down to some careful and clever management of such a unique
sound.
