friend & doktor kosmos - doubt of the human

this i found in the bin and was really puzzled on how it would sound. i knew that friend delved in more electronic stuff and i knew doktor kosmos did weird stuff but i didn't know what the combination would become. after taking it home it was clear it was more friend than doktor kosmos and but you could hear his influences on some of the tracks.

the track i was drawn to instantly was "doubt on the human" since it was this bumping electro track with nice bass. there is a hookline that they use during the breakdown which is corny but rest is quite nice. there is all sorts off waggly tweaks and attention to the details in the sound both in the foreground and in the back.

the whole ep is quite good to be honest and the three remixes by daniel ibbotson, metamatics and clatterbox holds really well. i'm really fond of the clatterbox version of career opportunities where he strips down and reshapes the big beat meets electro original into a slice of groovy minnesota-influenced funk piece.
