David Garfit - The Trouble With This

  • Share
  • Luke Pompey's Love Not Money is one of a few Leeds labels striding confidently through its early releases. Number seven is a bit of a city love in, actually, with three of the four names appearing all hailing from the place. Nest resident David Garfit provides the original track, one that has a slightly prickly prog polish about its elastic house frame. The remix from Johnny Cade is deeper and less sunburnt, with guitar-licked basslines lapping beneath future-facing synths. Cade's is a slow burner compared to VIVa mainstay Darius Syrossian who sets to work quickly in comparison: his bouncy basslines feel clipped and kinetic (the effect is a sort of warm jack), with no small amount of jazzy key work keeping things live in the latter half. The final effort comes from Bubba, his fizzy and low-slung basslines more befitting of the sun-kissed and poolside sounds of his Hot Creations peers. Like the city's football club sing, Leeds is marching on together.
