OUT NOW! Foniks - Selections V.1 (FILTER039)

GET THE ALBUM HERE 

Following Abstract Butta Fingas, Alcendor and NSOK, Foniks is the fourth member of the infamous 5Signs crew to join Filter. The online community has been drooling over the video clips of his MPC performances for some time and loyal fans are following him wherever he performs. Selections V.1 is an attempt to capture the energy of his live performances and it proves to be a complete success. From the opening beats of the first song it is clear that DJ Shadow is a strong influence, but Foniks offers an even broader spectrum of moods, atmospheres and styles. Ranging from hip-hop through mambo, funk, surf-rock, trip-hop and electronica, the sound of Selections V.1 is hard to explain, but so addictive to explore. The album goes from strength to strength, whirling effortlessly like the most pleasant rollercoaster you have ever wanted to ride on.
