Elephant & Castle - Transitions - Electronica - CD

2012 album from this act led by Bay Area based beat maker David Reep AKA Elephant & Castle. Transitions is an exploration into low-fi sounds, finding their limits and pushing them further in a way few artists have done before. A well put together and polished record, Reep has found a balance between electronic sounds and live instruments. With tracks like 'Derni/Paralysis' creating an eerie yet pop like ambience, and the single 'En Memoria,' which sees E&C hooking up with the Tune-Yards, providing a head nodding, melodic, beguiling tune. The versatility David is capable of is put on display from beginning to end.
