The rise of Norway’s DJ Sotofett – a man whose eclectic tastes and eccentric nature can be heard in every oddball release – has been one of the more pleasing dance music developments of recent years.
Here he brings his refreshingly unusual approach to Austria’s Laton label with six more chunks of distinctive oddness. Highlights are naturally plentiful, from the dusty drum machine beats, bleeping electronics and new age deep house chords of “Alternate Mix (feat FIT)”, to the hallucinogenic chords, trippy electronics and sped-up 4/4 beats of “Higher Inda Jungle”. Predictably, he doffs a cap to classic deep jungle on “Breaking Set of the Jungle Fantasy”, while the title track is a humid, feverish blend of delay-laden drum machine work and tropical bird noises.
