Emerson Twin- Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (Album)

(Pigeons and Planes)-"Emerson Twin originally emailed me submitting an entire album that he was giving away on Soundcloud. Often, a little-known artist giving this much of their work away is a representation of its quality, or lack thereof, but as soon as I read in the email that the tracks had been supported by Scratcha DVA and Two Inch Punch, not to mention been played on Hyperdub’s Rinse FM show, I was intrigued. And Emerson Twin’s Original Motion Picture Soundtrack album did not disappoint. After a brief intro track, “2966 Impala” goes straight for the jugular with booming bass and jagged, bright synth-work that fans of Rustie will surely appreciate. A wide variety of different sounds and styles appear across the album, and Emerson Twin’s talents also extend to the remix game, with edits of Kendrick Lamar and James Blake on his Soundcloud, not to mention the fantastic Four Tet remix which we are happy to premiere today."


Personally, Flamingo Bay is my favorite track on the album, but the work as a whole is pretty awesome(here's the link for the full album-(Soundcloud). Also, check out Emerson's latest track, "Four Tet- Angel Echoes Remix"(shown above). Keep an eye on Emerson Twin, big things should be coming for the artist soon.
