Kalai – Wouldn’t Do + Dusted
The eighties ain’t dead…. Not according to Kalai’s tracks “Wouldn’t do” and Dusted”
Electro Robot Disco is mounted like a WW2 German 88 launching relentless funk all around these tracks, persistent like the T1000, minus the desire to smite Sarah and John Connor. Who knew such retro sounds emerging from Belfast could be so simple and effective.
Kalai’s sound cloud account has sprouted disco bass lines straight from a bag of cocaine. Wet and oily with a similar atmosphere created by The Rolling Stones in their 1978 cut “Miss You”. I have posted “Wouldn’t Do” and “Dusted” below. I feel dirty just listening to Dusted, lazor synth sounds and a guitar lick plucked from a Lethal Weapon sex scene. Seemingly both tracks wouldn’t be out of place in a Nicolas Winding Refn film and although Kalai has numerous production styles I am personally drawn to the Disco varietals below.
