Recourse

Manik returns to Ovum with Recourse. Manik teams up with LA word-painter Cari Golden. Momentum maintained throughout; things take an unexpected dubby twist as the 'VHS' shimmers and ripples with synth insistency. Rolling hi-hats, hip-snapping clap attacks and a timeless vocal shot build around each other, occasionally revealing a fully-juiced bassline swinging and rolling with total consistency. "Los Angeles Dub" is straight up jack, no chaser: a grainy, analog moment of total unabashed machine-melting funk.
