Stream: New 2AM/FM + Broker Dealer 12"s

Two great Spectral Sound artists recently got the 12" treatment, and we're streaming the results just for you.

From 2AM/FM – aka the duo of James T. Cotton and D'Marc Cantu – comes another thick slab of classic dance music. "Electronic Justice" may well be 2AM/FM's manifesto, a rolling vocal creeper whose laser-beam pulses ebb and flow around a synthesized mantra: "Experimental vision / This is us, who we are / This is our religion." Fitting words to chant, shout, or whisper in the flicker of a strobe at 2am, after all.

Broker/Dealer's second pressing for Spectral sells itself softly — at first. The Soft Sell EP retains the dreamy expansiveness and seamless production of Broker Dealer's album work, but places its foot firmly on the dance floor. In the title cut, reverberated hisses and whispers oscillate in and out of the depths with the metallic vibrato of copper under water. Then the handclaps drop in, the subtle bass takes hold, and "Soft Sell" unfolds into a sophisticated nighttime scene-stealer.
