Eyes of Others EP announced via As If: Maya Danon remix now streaming

London’s As If announced Eyes of Others‘ latest EP, Lust Unrequited earlier this week, together with an exclusive stream of Tel Aviv-based Maya Danon‘s excellent remix.  The release is the latest in an ever more impressive resumé from Parisian label Mange_Moi.

Eyes of Others

Maya Danon has remixed ‘Lust Unrequited‘ by Eyes Of Others in a rolling style, encapsulating  rhythmic bass that courses throughout, vibrantly holding a steady beat that shies away from ever changing as soft electronics bellow out, giving it a unique twist. Eyes Of Others new EP Lust Unrequited is due for release on the 20th of April.”

Mange_Moi announces new EP Lust Unrequited from Edinburgh’s Eyes of Others.

Drawing on human relationships as a natural source of influence, Eyes of Others fuses space and melody with seductive and infectious consequence. Making ‘post-pub, couldn’t get in the club music’, Eyes of Others has recently gained the support of electronic music pioneers such as Das Ding and Andrew Weatherall after previous releases on Edinburgh label Paradise Palms.

Eyes of Others – Lust Unrequited EP

The new EP Lust Unrequited confuses language, love and lust to beguiling effect. Born of Scottish Highland myth, its romantic and rapacious sonic journey starts there. Looking to Europe, Brussels-based Mugwump is first to go off-road with his take, employing both respect and disregard for tradition in equal measures. Next, crossing the Atlantic to California, we find Sordid Sound System manoeuvring the raw materials to fully dubbed- out results. Finally Tel-Aviv’s Maya Danon takes a majestic and tempered bare-bones approach, giving just enough and never too much.

Lust Unrequited is released on Friday April 20th via Mange_Moi, distributed by Believe.

Numerical Discord Swap is a double-whammy 7” of alien machine-funk crafted by the rave pilot himself. The titular track is a low-slung 110bpm Acid weapon while Cybord Holiday Snaps veers into hissing Electro territory with pounding rhythms and Detroit-strength bass stabs.
