Huerco S. delivers his debut album proper on Dan Lopatin’s Software imprint, providing his services following his seductive EPs on Wicked Bass, Opal Tapes / Boomkat Editions, and Future Times. This top-tier release explores the current trends of new age ambience and rugged, smoke-filled house rhythms, taking them to new depths and opening up introspective dubwise zones. Titled ‘Plucked From The Ground, Towards The Sun,’ it presents a microscopic examination of 90s Chain Reaction cuts while incorporating Autechre-esque edits and minor key shifts in tracks like ‘Quivira.’ The album really hits its stride with standout cuts like ‘Anagramme Of My Love,’ a dreamy house track with mesmerizing choppage. ‘linzhiid’ follows, showcasing a nonchalant narcotic swagger reminiscent of Newworldaquarium, and ‘Ragtime U.S.A. (Warning)’ closes the album with a killer codeine boogie. In a sea of similar releases, Huerco S. stands out with his precise production and effortless cool. This is truly exceptional work.
