Pantha Du Prince 'The Triad Ambient Versions'

Hendrik Weber’s fourth album as Pantha Du Prince, ‘The Triad’, brought in new elements – in particular, some dreamy vocals – but essentially trod familiar ground: the fine detail of 00s minimal house, with rippling melodies. It’s nice here to hear him changing tack here, then, as he strips away the house pulse from the same songs and lets them breathe. Occasionally, a rigid hi-hat pattern reminds you of the beat that’s not there, and it seems strange that he’s stripped most of the drifting voices, but for the most part it works beautifully – so much so, in fact, that one hopes it might signal a new interest in working in spaces away from familiar patterns. Joe Muggs
