Redinho - Whips

Recently discovered Redinho via Nmbrs, who have snapped him up after his Bare Blips EP rippled through the electronic scene last year. His style is pretty damn broad, from the rapid and delicate bleeps of 'Pitter Patter' - a tune reminiscent of Four Tet and softer Squarepusher, to the twitchy wonk of 'Nuff Prang's' bass, he touches on micro house, dubstep and glitch. I've posted up 'Whips' coz I find the warm kinetic synths irresistible and the funk influence resonates with a mesmerizing neon glow throughout the tune.


'Whips' is taken from his Edge Off EP which boasts other robustly diverse dance tracks like 'Power Look' with it's oscillating sink-hole synthesizers, the hectic, skittering juke of 'Slap' and of course the eponymous, Chromeo-esque 'Edge Off'. His live show sounds like an act to catch too, at SXSW he utilised keyboards and a talkbox as he performed with Jackmaster and Deadboy, hopefully he'll come to Brightopia soon.
