LXURY SQUARE 1 (FEAT. DEPTFORD GOTH)

Fresh-faced production whiz Lxury was always going to draw comparisons with Disclosure, particularly given that his first thudding bass cut, 'J.A.W.S', saw release on the Lawrence brothers' own Method Records imprint. That said, there's always been something slightly more intriguing about Andy Smith's distinctive beats compared to his close pals - they're more direct, more dense, and yet still impossibly playful.

In the months since his debut single dropped, Smith inked terms with the equally hefty Greco-Roman, to release the Playground EP but 'Square 1'sees a return to familiar ground, and Disclosure's guest-vocalist formula, with Deptford Goth offering up some cotton-spun harmonies, which drift over canopies of twinkling bells, broiling samples and insistent bass pops. Hurry up, summer. - DC
