Pre-Order: Tom Sharkett - 25 [12" Vinyl], Tom Sharkett, Vinyl

Tom Sharkett has been one to watch in the last year via his remix work for DFA, Sub Pop and more, plus his edits that are quietly out there doing damage with those that know. Here he arrives on Test Pressing Recordings with '25'. Hot on the heels of his remix of LCD Soundsystem's 'Home' - 'Easily one of the biggest records of the Summer' (Phonica Records) - here is his first solo EP for the label. 'Painting On Glass' arrives and sets the mood. Heavy synths and breaks. '25' features the vocals of mui zyu and pulls from the likes of New Order but takes them somewhere new. The third track, 'Sleepwalk', sees mui zyu return - a love song that sets a mood then drops into a vocoder loop midway before a fitting finale. 'I'll Call If I Want You' closes the EP with a vocal from Tom himself. It's a perfect closer. This isn't a straight up dance record. It's an artist showing they've got big ideas and a home for them.
