Album Review: Fantastic Mr Fox – ‘Evelyn EP’ (Black Acre)

The buzz on this Brit producer has been swirling in the blogosphere and the four pulsing, hypnotic, nouveau electro soul grooves here should keep the chatter going strong. The awesomely named Fantastic Mr. Fox (aka Stephen Gomberg) builds densely-layered digital symphonies concocted with sparse, impassioned vocal snippets, snappy drums, creative percussion, bold synth lines, and funky bass. “Over” shifts from minimal lounge dirge to R & B to digi-soul to space funk, thanks to a seamless blending of effects-heavy female vocal cuts, dusty percussion, and deep synth riffs. “Sepia Song” is a bouncy, infectious ditty that uses housey vocal cuts to tie together keyboard stabs and stuttering drums with some syrupy sweet melodies. And the title track is a sexy, funky house party that combines the raunchy edge of Glitch Mob with the lounge swing of Claude Von Stroke and the boom bap slap of the Doomtree collective. From the sounds of these four nuggets, the buzz is well-deserved and this is likely just a delicious sampling of fantastic things to come.
