Gang Colours - In Your Gut Like A Knife

Just discovered Gang Colours, the Southhampton based producer of idyllic electronica. From his soundcloud profile 'Chance Meeting' is my favourite, but all his tunes are pretty special. His sound is subtle and understated yet tracks like 'Chance Meeting' build in momentum and morph into otherworldly sonics lined with synths that swell with tender fondness.


Gang Colours aka Will Ozanne signed to Giles Peterson's label Brownswood Recordings earlier this year and released his In Your Gut Like a Knife EP in June. On the record you can hear Burial's atmospherics, the sepia soaked melancholy of Massive Attack and there's an evident love of UK garage throughout it. Lush chords and hushed pads abound this is an EP to score daydreams. I'm off to buy it right now.
