Chris D'eon a.k.a. D'EON been gettin his slink on up over in Montreal. Dude's ÆON tape just dropped on Numbers Station. Chris sent me the first half of the tape, five airy tracks of "house / r&b / pop / psych," as the label puts it. ÆON is the follow up to wa al-'asr, another one of D'EON's tapes Numbers Station dropped earlier this year.
The side's closing track, "The Girl From Koln Is Gone," is probably my favorite cos it gets the most funky. I'm not big into the whole house pulse but sometimes it reminds me of Selected Ambient Works Volume 1 which is probably a very naïve reference point but whatever. Shit sounds like a failed night at some awful club. Going home and coming down would be a good idea, but the drinks are cheap and everyone looks good. Everyone looks so good you been feelin fresher by the hour. Besides, you've learned this one before - that girl from Koln always comes back.
D'EON - The Girl From Koln Is Gone
Head on over to Numbers Station to grab a couple more downloads and to BUY the tape.
