On a similar tip to the AK Kids EP we posted recently, Akira Kiteshi once more eschews the big brutal bass sound for a more atmospheric soundscape created from looped up reel to reels, outboard synths and old jazz vinyl, and again recorded in one take.

Much as we love a good speaker stomping beat and a gut wrenching bassline, it has to be said we were pleasantly surprised that the 3 track Free EP we just caught off the AK Kids (the original Akira Kiteshi pairing of Tommy Forrest and Steven Hyslop) is actually pretty far removed from Tommy's solo stuff. More of an atmospheric journey, a rhythmical soundscape of collected sounds and complimentary frequencies underlined with lush synths and overlayed with static, zen as f**k and recorded in just 3 hours in one take.
