Review: Kerrier Collective & wolf peaches - Rotten Fingers EP (Colour & Pitch)

Colour & Pitch have a new release with Kerrier Collective teaming up with wolf peaches as they get to grips with 'Rotten Fingers', the exciting EP that's coming to you very soon.

You'll recall Kerrier Collective from a couple of years ago, (almost to the day), 'Life Wants To Live' (see review HERE) whilst wolf peaches is a singer/songwriter from Sheffield (Ed. is that a Cornish-Yorkshire growth corridor?)  

'Rotten Fingers' has previously been produced with Robin Grey as a mindful downtempo track with pretty intense lyrics that's been picked up from a Sunday morning feel to a Saturday night under KC's mix of Omar S and Nils Frahm inspiration!  It's a fantastic juxtapositon into classic pop-Balearic-jazz-funk with great horn arrangements.

The new track, 'Fake Silence' takes a similar transition with a bruk grounding that's highlighted by some plucked violin. 

This is going to be on all the best playlists so be tprepared to be impressed; already played by Rhythm Doctor (aka Chris Long, he of 'Digital Juju' - see review HERE) on his Waiting Room Show.

Also featured in the Colour & Pitch March Mix by Will Sumsuch.

Review: Kerrier Collective - Life Wants To Live (Colour & Pitch)

Colour & Pitch have had some stunning releases recently and if you think you know what you're going to expect, be in for a surprise as 'Life Wants To Live' by Kerrier Collective that you can be on the edge without falling over.

Kerrier Collective are a duo (Ben Tidy and Alfie Gidley) based in Cornwall and this instrumental featuring live horns from Polly Meyrick (it must be 'a thing' - also see George T's 'Automatic Self On Hold' featuring Joseph Malik) and it's got that post-"Kruder & Dorfmeister and Cinematic Orchestra's lovechild" trip-hop of Conic Rose that works so well.

And for the club, there's a remix from CoFlo (from the San Francisco Bay area, not Porthtowan) who mixes in a deep house tribal synth dubness to this in a flutey forest that's reminiscent of Osunlade/Yoruba.

How did they get together with Coflo? It was through their love of CoFlo's track 'Lux' (with a Kaidi Tatham remix) on Local Talk so hoping we're going to hear must more of these guys.
