Mosca – A Thousand Years Wait (Ann Aimee) [ANN018]

Mosca comes with some serious deep vibes on this release as he teams up with Ann Aimee records. Mosca has recently professed to have found his sound on twitter, and if its this sort of sound, we are more than happy and can not wait to hear future releases. Press Up is the most tantalising track on the release pulsating with an array of vibes and sounds. Don’t take our word for it, listen to the release below!

thepurplebay favourite: Press Up

Official Description: “Following in the footsteps of Sawlin and Yan Cook last year, Ann Aimee has readied its next release. This one comes from UK tastemaker and Radio 1 presenter Mosca, and is his first release of the year after previous releases on labels like Martyn’s 3024 and Hypercolour.

First up is ‘It’s Not What It Looks Like’ – a hunched over, industrial tinged house groove with rattling percussion and a heavy kick drum. Fully of grainy textures and clanging machines, the whole thing is backlit with serene pads and smeared with deft synth patterns. ‘Kneecap’ is even more direct, with tiny little off kilter chords bringing a sense of paranoia to the barrelling beats and bristling percussion. It’s muscular and heavy yet inviting, whilst final offering ‘Press Up’ is a beautifully swung bit of deep and atmospheric house – all the edges are nicely frayed and the whole thing is smoothed over with misty textures as the barrelled-up sense of funk grows more and more lively as things progress. It’s been a while since we heard from Mosca, but this one sure was worth the wait.

As always with this lovingly crafted label, the EP comes with full cover artwork by Boris Tellegen.”
