memo
EL-B might have been the one to introduce woodblock percussion to the 2-step and UK garage massive, but since Burial’s seminal album „Untrue“ kickstarted a new wave of woodblock loving tracks, it’s become a somewhat overused signature sound in the world of swinging newschool 2-step rhythms. On VVV’s debut album „Across The Sea,“ you will also find plenty of dry woodblock percussions (and heavily time-stretched vocal-samples for that matter), but the young Texan does have a way of sounding like his own in the midst of all these classic signifiers, adding a new layer to these genre's musical legacies. The acidic „Stuck Between“, the stumbling „Traverse“ or the brooding „Under Control“ are maybe the best examples of that. There are a lot of sweet moments to discover on „Across The Sea“. VVV just got that special swing.
