Having initially forecast his production energy into his own Tartan imprint, Wallace's music quickly developed a cultish following among record collectors and influential DJs including Gilles Peterson, Optimo, Hunee and Ryan Elliott. Another supporter has been CWPT's founder Palms Trax, who, following releases on Studio Barnhus and Rhythm Section, snatches four highly sought-after tracks for the seventh release on the label, each showcasing Wallace's inimitable and enviable skills as an engineer and a willingness to stoke the sort of organic euphoria that DJs dream of igniting.Amongst the curios, rarities and other finds that have peppered Palms Trax's sets this past summer, it's title track 'Willow' that has levitated entire club and festival dance floors like few others. Escalating from a disco percussion loop, 'Willow' soon brings on high-energy melodies and a captivating sense of something more ethereal, seemingly reinvigorating old tricks with exciting new flavors: if you only raise your hands to one climactic snare roll this year, we ask you to make it this one.This refreshing intersection between flourish and function is felt even more heavily on 'Breathe', a contemporary electronic battle weapon whose breaks-and-bassline arrangement fluctuates between weightless wonder and heavy business. Frontloaded with the detail and atmosphere of a vintage Chems or Leftfield cut, 'Breathe' exhales then explodes all the skill and reverie of the most memorable 90s techno.Wallace appears to dip into the chillout room for the swampy rhythm of 'Masada', before proving his slow-motion mettle, a Sergeant Peppering of psychedelia creating true hedonistic density and groove. In conclusion and on the contrary, 'River Dancers' maintains subtle hypnosis at a similar pace with much less, employing simple timbres and a stuttering, innocent vocal inflection to conjure wide-eyed whimsy far downstream from the EP's earlier, maximal wonders.Tracklisting:
