- There's something about Bambook that suggests the Swedish duo are a cut above your average deep house practitioners. Releases on Get Physical, Circus and Culprit are evidence that some of the bigger names in their market agree. There's a satisfying warmth, a sentimental touch about the rich, analogue grooves and elemental melodies that Eiad Sayegh and Hannes Netzell construct.
It may sound like the name of Ikea's plastic colander range, but "Galopp" is gorgeous: tumbling bass keys punch out the rhythm as a looping piano sample and fizzing snares bathe everything in a hypnotic glow. "Analogon" finds the Stockholm producers toughening things up and taking things deeper. With a trippy single-note motif acting as a tracer bullet, Bambook work in dabs of acid and hushed, unintelligible background vocals, pulled into ever-darker waters by a heavy, throbbing undertow.
