TLM036: KiloWatts - Time Keeper
With Limaçon remix
Philadelphia native James Watts, a.k.a. KiloWatts, returns to Thoughtless with three signature tracks combining innovative sound design with captivating arrangements. In his hiatus since releasing 'Love on Saturn' for TLM018, James has been busy indeed – releasing his deep ambient work on Somnia, a sci-fi hip-hop full-length along with MC Amagine as Super Galactic Expansive, and producing 'The Paranormal' for Claude VonStroke's Mothership label as one half of Voodeux. His forward-thinking production style stands out in a world of mass-duplicated dance music, and this EP is no exception. We begin with 'The Ringing Spheres', which brings smooth hypnosis to a slow boil, resulting in a subtle yet majestic crescendo anchored by iconic keys. Deftly merging IDM roots with modern tech-house aesthetics, 'Speed of Time' displays KiloWatts' fluency in the studio with a stunning meld of broken beats, driving rhythms and a futuristic funk we can only hope the world is ready for. After having his hit 'The Ride' remixed by KiloWatts for TLM014, label favorite Limaçon returns the favor, reworking 'Speed of Time' as an infectious deep house groove that's sure to keep the floor moving effortlessly into the wee hours. Finally, 'Solar Clock' closes the EP with an attitude brighter than the sun, pulsing rhythms paired with melodic flares and magnetic sparks designed to light up any sound system. 'Time Keeper' is as clear a statement as any that KiloWatts is a singular talent, and we're delighted to count him among the Thoughtless...
