Synopsis

Album Description

2009 release from British Electronic musician Matt Cutler (Lone). Ecstasy & Friends is a rejuvenating step back from the undeniable bass driven style that has dominated the UK underground scene in recent years. Dreamy memories of Madlib are likely first impressions from these full-frontal productions, which come on like extensive workouts in melody and playful beats. Intriguing shades of post-club nostalgia pervade, underlined by warm, enveloping synths, while parallel sympathetic strands of muscular rhythm hit the mind and body with a refreshing and clean sound, willing and ready to go as hard in clubs as it does on the ears.

CD Reviews

Lone's second outing offers less hit-and-miss and more tropi

Thaddeus Burns | 12/16/2009

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Lone has really fleshed out his sound this time around, and produced more of his signature warm, fuzzy, sidechained tropical hip-hop instrumentals. This album feels more complete than "Lemurian" due to the lack of short vignette tracks (which although nice, weren't particularly memorable or much fun to listen to).

I can't say much else about it, except that it's worth listening to. If you aren't familiar with Lone, it's like Flying Lotus, but with a heavy dose of warm, fuzzy nostalgia and sunshine."
