Having delivered a couple of quietly impressive solo EPs for Keep It Zen and Saft, as well as a highlight of Disco Bloodbath’s label as one half of Al Gobi, Ian Blevins pops up on Lovefingers’ ESP Institute with a pair of tracks that the LA label claim will “boost your Serotonin levels”. Certainly, A-side “Hannibal” is a definite mood enhancer, with bubbling, high-pitched electronic melodies and spacey chords riding a fizzing, Detroit-influenced analogue house groove. Flipside “Welcome Aunt Poly” is an altogether deeper and drowsier affair, with rich, stretched-out pads reclining over a shuffling, cowbell-laden rhythm. It feels like the sort of track that could induce a “moment” when heard at the right time, despite its’ relatively simple – if not less delicious – construction.
