With an intro that evokes the ethereal feel of 2000s techno, punchy drums, and a house-infused, sensual vibe with a swing to it—a masterpiece of sultry tech-funk! ANDY DAVIES, one half of the legendary duo SPINCYCLE—whose work graced key UK tech-house labels like SURREAL and OBLONG, both of which are currently seeing a resurgence—has released a new solo track!
Formed in 1999, they remained active through the late 2000s. ANDY DAVIES—a member of SPINCYCLE, known for his work on the cult label 〈GEEK〉, where the artists themselves were involved in operations and most of the catalog has become hard to find, yet remains in constant demand among UK tech-house enthusiasts—is launching a new release under the name THE SENTINEL! Tracks like “Theme from Sentinel” (sample 1), which creates a jacking yet deep house soundscape with a bouncy acid bassline that makes you nod your head, and "Climbing Cosmos" (sample 2)—which lightly sprinkles 808s throughout a laid-back, groovy, and deep soundscape—these tracks offer an irresistible sound for fans of late ’90s to ’00s deep tech, with broad appeal.
