Garrett: Private Life Vinyl LP
Ready for something different? One of our favorite labels to emerge in recent years just linked with our favorite west coast funk maestro to provide our 2017 summer soundtrack; conjuring seriously deep & dissonant zones not touched since we first fell for him waaaay back in 2008 circa Burgundy City and Rhythm Trax IV. After setting the scene with tensely cinematic neon-lit arpeggios on "Apocalyptic Sunrise," Garrett launches head-first into some next-level g-funk waltz on "Right Now" (if we were gangbanging types, we'd be out in the parking lot practicing our C-walk to this one right now) to level the vibe, making way for dubbed-out climax cut "Slow Motion." Close your eyes and feel the shady palm trees floating past as you creep down Santa Monica Boulevard; you can almost taste the salt blowing in off the Pacific coast. Other highlights include the breezy Pasadena stroll "Home" and sublime, 12-minute saltwater float of "Angel Reflections" which briefly appeared on one of Garrett's soundcloud accounts 8 years ago and was momentarily re-upped a few years later in tribute to the late DJ Mehdi. Slip on your best pair of locs, take a deep puff of that Djarum Black, ignore all the hype and live your own life. Recommended.
