Taraval

Say hello to Taraval, the new signing on Kieran Hebden's Text label, with their debut EP of mutant, misshapen house and techno trax. There's four cannily skewed but heavily functional groovers, sustaining a smart dancefloor intensity from the pacy Detroit techno momentum of 'Gar's Highway' thru the blown-out, Trilogy Tapes-style warped house of 'Gonna Rain' to a killer acid jacker strongly reminding of Oliverwho Factory's heady aces in 'Streetways', and stripped down Wax/EQ'd styles on 'Doug's Prayer'.
