Berlin-Hamburg duo Session Victim return to the ever-reliable Delusions Of Grandeur imprint with Chapter Two of their 'Sidequests' trilogy, marking yet another high point in their almost twenty year journey through heartfelt, sample-rich music. Overflowing with analog warmth, sun-drenched textures and irresistible grooves, the release also features a stellar remix from label co-founder and deep house pioneer Jimpster who kicks off the EP.Here he takes 'Behind The Glass' into spaced out house-not-house territory. With crisp drum programming, trademark Rhodes, and subtle pads that build over time, his version delivers that late-night sophistication he's known for-steering the downtempo original in a clubbier direction without losing it's blissed-out essence.Up next we have a brand new collaborative effort with long time friend, label mate and fellow sample nerd Nebraska. 'Make It Happen' is a dusty, slo-mo house groove featuring delicate keys, euphoric strings and that unmistakable sense of journey. It's just the kind of low-slung epic house they do best-intimate yet club-ready, nostalgic but never retro.Flipping over, 'Too Soft To Be Loud', another collaboration with Viken Arman, follows with a jazzy, almost samba-esque rhythm and swirling atmospherics. Loose percussion, catchy guitar riffs and Rhodes stabs collide with off-kilter dub FX and soft vocal snippets giving the track a laid-back, live-band feel that harks back to their See You When You Get There era.'Hubcap Candy' dives deep into funk territory. Nebraska's on point boogie bassline drives the track forward as crunchy drums and layers of synths create a dreamlike haze. It's loopy, moody, and finds Session Victim at their very best.Closing out the EP we have the original of 'Behind The Glass', a headsy, beatdown piece that slowly unfolds over an unconventional brass-like bassline and delicate guitar textures, paying homage to the golden age of Trip Hop haziness and it's pioneer turntable spirit.Blending crate-digging sensibilities with forward-thinking production, this latest release solidifies Session Victim's reputation as genre-blurring tastemakers, and their chemistry with Delusions Of Grandeur remains as strong as ever.Tracklisting:A1.
