On their Real Time EP Glaswegian duo Thomas + James showcase a level of restraint and control that far exceeds their years in the scene. After turning heads on Alt Dub’s Artist Series 2, they now step up for their full debut on the Cornwall-based imprint – joining a roster of increasingly esteemed company.
Title track Real Time is an exercise in balance and tone, as a steady, unrushed percussion sequence is gently ushered along amongst a haze of oscillating, technicolour synths and atmospherically dense pad work.
The track treats its listener to not one, but two excursions in the cold clear air above the clouds, each time delicately plunging them back into the warm, muggy fog of subs and swinging percussion.
‘Real Time’ EP is scheduled for release on 3rd April via Alt Dub. Buy vinyl from Inverted Audio Record Store.
