The ‘Peradam’ EP By Martin Lefteri


Eclectics’ latest release sees them hand over the leatherback gloves and ride shotgun Feel the Drive’s Martin Lefteri takes over the controls for The Peradam EP.

An epic, late-night journey, this release takes us through the pulsing heartbeat of Italo, EBM and electronic slo-mo disco. Lefteri ditches the GPS in favour of reading the landscape and feeling the terrain as his foot hits the floor.

The title track, Peradam, sets the course, a bottom-heavy bass keeping things firmly rooted while eastern-influenced melodies and acoustic guitar lines wind their way through. The influences are cast wide, throwing soft shadows in shifting shades. Progressive disco, cosmic psychedelia, hammam house… call it what you will – it’s a tune built for late nights, loose limbs and open minds.

A change of gear and we’re heading for the motorway. “Tosu Chu” goes heavy on the arpeggio to provide a deep foundation for the lighter notes and treble tones to build. The result is a new wave-inflected masterpiece that sounds like the late Pete Shelley remixing New Order for a Rimini dancefloor. And yes, the results are every bit as good as that suggests.

Taking up remix duties for “Peradam” is Ilya Santana (Eskimo Recordings/Porn Wax), who goes heads-down and bpms up to craft a dark disco beast of a track. A remix to get the mercury rising wherever it’s played, it carries weight and groove with the subtle balance we’ve come to expect from this sonic magician.

For “Tosu Chu” meanwhile, the honours go to Timothy J Fairplay, who tackles the tune with a trademark sense of haunting restraint. It’s often easy to mistake a gradual climb for caution, but not here. Spectral synth sounds smooth out the harder corners, creating a clear, linear path for a journey full of motorik momentum.

Two in the front, two in the back. Belt up, let’s go.
