1 track each from Area, Hakim Murphy, and Murdoc, + bonus remix. The 2 on A lean more toward the stoner side, the B is all Murdoc focusing more on the beats. The past year has seen Area dropping solo records for Francois Ks Wave Music, Anton Zaps Ethereal Sound, and Brendon Moellers Steadfast Recordings. With songs described as >guaranteed to create a special mood in a club< (Resident Advisor) and >warm, shoegaze-dreamy but floor-ready pop< (Little White Earbuds), Areas heady productions tread the line between functionality and abstraction.
