"Big Gete Star" 12"

by Perfume Advert

supported by

Paul C Pederson I'm not huge into house, so I like it when artists are able to take the genre and elevate it. Perfume Advert take the the house/tech-house formula and then expertly weave in these extremely nuanced textural layers. Super dynamic all the way through. Favorite track: Single White Junker.

Niccolo Brown Perfume Advert are far and away my favourite house producers and "Big Gete Star" finds them returning to 1080p who released the wonderful "Tulpa" which got me hooked on them in the first place. Dazed, abstract, lo-fi house is scarcely rare but it's Perfume Advert's weirdness of touch and the way they leave the box entirely blank and do all their colouring outside it that has me drooling over their every release. Put on your headphones, dim the lights and inhale the aural incense. Favorite track: Single White Junker.

about

Middlesbrough lads Aaron Turner and Tom Brown make their return to 1080p as Perfume Advert, following up what I must say was one of the breakthrough early cassette releases of the label (“Tulpa”, from back in 2013) with a vivid and kinetic wash of tech-house and and deeply-layered house—extremely heavy night-drive vibes and more abstracted mesmeric feelings lit with pulsating textures and their distinctly murky cosmics.

The tracks are amongst the last few written and recorded in the Boro before they moved to Salford, and are a result of moving the sound out of the bedroom and experimenting at clubs and festivals over the past couple of years. Artistic influences remain inside the same oddball sci-fi realm as “Tulpa”, sandworms everywhere, drawing from; Ballard’s scribblings and on-screen adaptations, Yoshitaka Amano’s earlier surreal + textile laden works and fantasy dreamscapes, Philip K Dick’s dystopian, near-future prophecies, and Akira Toriyama’s hyperactive, OTT approach to character and storytelling.
