Paul Woolford 'Father, Son & Holy Ghost' (Aus)
Aus managed to prise Wooly from Houndstooth and XL Recordings in order to release this strong EP. The moody synths and broken beat of ‘Father’ sound like a grumpy Bicep and Aphex Twin jamming with Jean-Michel Jarre on keys. Completing the release are ‘Holy Ghost’, which is a piece of staunch club ammunition, and ‘Son’, a joyful, beatless version of ‘Father’ that makes for a stunning instrumental soundscape.
