FACTA
IN BLOOM (WISDOW TEETH)
UK label Wisdom Teeth closes out 2021 with a synchronised double drop from label heads Facta and K-LONE.
Having retreated to more low-lit, pensive territories on his debut LP, Blush, In Bloom marks Facta's headlong return to the dancefloor.
At its core, In Bloom is a house record, albeit one bearing all the usual eccentricities of a Facta release: bleeping off-kilter melodies, glitching FX, warped subs and fizzing neon synths.
Up top, C Sequence follows on from 2019's Doves in exploring a future-facing and experimental take on mutant tech-house.
Centred around a writhing, modulating FM bassline, the track undulates and builds gradually to a soaring mid-section before collapsing back in on itself.
On the flip, In Bloom drops the tempo to a dubby stomp, with a reversed synth hook playing out over ricocheting chords and a phasing, blown-out sub line.
