Description
EP3: Tusk Dance opens with “Session”, an incantation that celebrates the joy of making music. “Bomptious” sees Mo in tongue-in-cheek Casanova mode, making up words as he goes along over a trademark loose hip-hop groove. If it wasn’t already clear, title track “Tusk Dance” shows that Mo K dances to a different drum: propulsive percussion and sci-fi synths offer an unusual example of what dance music can be in 2013. “Promise” may well be the highlight here, an entrancing, hypnotic cover of a roots reggae obscurity that sounds like nothing out there. “Laser Wind Tunnel” brings his raw dub techniques to a kinetic electric funk jam with exhilarating results.
