Good things come to those who wait and after nearly two years we've been rewarded for our patience with 3 outstanding new tracks full of heart, energy and insight from Ed Davenport. Ed has been an integral part of the Gumption set up from the beginning so it seems only natural to begin our second chapter with him at the controls. Anyone who's familiar wth Ed's previous releases on Gumption, Liebe Detail or Leftroom (as Szenario) will already be aware of his unique storytelling abilities but Tillmans Uninfluence, Apples and Quest for Kicks (digital only) herald a new era in his musical evolution. Tillmans Uninfluence is probably the most immediate of the tracks on offer here, effortlessly combining a driving tech house groove with traditional cuban/latin flavours. The intricate percussion parts, warm subsonic bassline and hypnotic chanting pull the dancer irresistabley towards the breakdown which is a real celebration in itself, adding nothing but positive vibes to the proceedings. A true dancefoor burner in the making. Ed utilises a different approach on Apples but to similar effect. Trainspotters may recognise the source of this sprawling epic but nothing can prepare you for the tripped out pyrotechnics that follow as he once again strikes the perfect balance between style and content, originality and creativity. Complete with deranged cowbell loops, dubstep influenced bassline and cavernous breakdown it's time to break out the smoke machine and surrender yourself to this whirling epiphany of sound.
