"New Tribe" toasts the global community Powder's connected during her travels. Marching-band snares, breathy ostinatos, motivating chords, springy auxiliary percussion and bouncy melodic details - all Powder trademarks, coalescing into one of her most celebratory offerings yet. "Gift" is a subtler jam, shuffling and twinkling in perfect balance. Reminiscent of "Spray," it sustains a retrofuturistic groove that defies the house / techno categorical binary.
Powder In Space marks the first in a new series exploring dance music's form and informality from Tim Sweeney's Beats In Space Records. The friendly voice behind the longstanding Beats In Space radio show and a formidable DJ to dance floors around the world, the ...In Space series, like the rest of the label's eclectic catalog, is testament to Tim's trust in the selector and vice versa.
Powder in Space is available now in mix CD and mixed / unmixed digital forms. Powder's two original tracks, alongside Samo DJ and Daphne's contributions to her mix, will be available in DJ-ready forms on 12" vinyl.
