We previously mentioned the upcoming ‘Red Falcon’ EP from Memory9 when ‘The Dodecahedron’ from the release was made available as a free download. As the December 16th release date comes ever closer, the London based producer has put together an entirely beatless mix titled ‘Red Planet Blues’ which features ambient pieces from the likes of Aphex Twin, Julianna Barwick, Machinedrum and Dorian Concept. The EP itself is inspired by the effect of the artists colour blindness on the colour red, and see’s Gadi Sassoon building on his characteristic mix of electronic music with a more organic approach. The four tracks move between jungle, jazz, hip hop and footwork, and are interwoven with more traditional compositions, focussing on the interplay between melody, bass and beats. Available digitally through the Mnemonic Dojo label, the release will also be out on a limited edition twelve inch picture disc designed by long time artistic collaborator Andren.
