The White Man & The Arab – an uneasy pairing of minds designed to deliver dancefloor bliss via the medium of limited 12s – is Ben Micklewright aka BLM (of Fear Of Flying / Underground Quality fame) and Souhail Zaatari aka Soho (of Phonica / etc fame). Together they been secretly labouring away in the studio and this four tracker is their first joint outing. The EP kicks off with “I Said”, a subtly hypnotizing analog jam with deep chords, a cleverly manipulated vocal snippet and a galloping beat that's impossible to resist. Next up on the a-side is “A little bit of the 80's”; a moody slice of emotive house, that rides a disjointed drum pattern, reverb-drenched chord stabs and an eerie melody. On the flip “Future Moves” is the rawest out of the four tracks on offer here... It's a ruff and ready basement jam that gradually builds it's way to a tight 909 pattern, an acidic bassline and a a blink- and-you'll-miss-it vocal sample. Finally the EP rounds off with “T.H.T”, a straight-up dancefloor tool, where the emphasis is on the groove and percussive elements. An excellent EP from these two producers who definitely know where it's at...
