Fully remastered and licensed reissue, limited to just 350 copies on black wax. This killer Italian library album by Luciano 'Arawak' Simoncini was only ever released on the elusive Orrery Records label, and is now very hard to find. Still very much under the radar, Explosive reveals itself as a swift tangled web of beats for the discerning DJ. Tracks includes the driving cosmic funk Hardware with sharp hip-hop breaks and spaced-out abstract synth keys. Kangoroo Court is an even better alternative version dubbed with underwater and weird’ish train effects. More electric piano madness on the insane Oil Spot. Also includes the two superb Fender Rhodes & environmental FX tracks Shotgun (First compiled on Vroommm funk cinematique and recently sampled by Tomppabeats) and the intriguing track Warhorse. Classic Arawak moods not to be missed!
