‘Easy Lee’, the 2003 hit by Ricardo Villalobos, is one of a kind. ‘Prada’ by Gombeen & Doygen comes close to capturing its magic. It’s captivating dub minimal with ketamine-like spoken words, a rhythm and sound bass groove, and funky guitar chords. It sounds like Berlin, but it’s from Ireland. The B-side is just as special with “Sequel”. It’s minimal house with hi-hat fever and a voice reminiscent of the best moments of acts like Soul Capsule. If this were the norm, a minimal renaissance could be on the horizon!
