Andy Stott’s first material of 2010 finds the producer in a sultry mood, delivering two house variants produced with his typically deep and luxurious style. “Tell Me Anything” centers around shuffling snares, a rugged bassline and sparkling keys anchoring the track somewhere between wide open and celestial expanses and the compressed warehouse environments of darkest North Manchester. When the keys drop half way through the track, you’ll be forgiven for thinking you are in underwater heaven; submerged, euphoric bliss. “Love Nothing” on the flipside is the slower of the two tracks, but somehow one of the most defining of Stott’s career, unraveling to expose an unfathomably deep arrangement of deep bass rumbles, decomposed vocals and mangled percussion. It sounds like Newworldaquarium, Mount Kimbie and DJ QU shooting the breeze, evoking the humid spirit and glamour of a hot summer in the city whilst retaining a northern grit now synonymous with the Modern Love crew. Beautiful living under difficult circumstances!
