different noodles: banana resort
Francisco Espregueira
Swirl People unveils their new label, LITS (standing for Lost In The Swirls), accompanied by fresh beats under their reactivated Different Noodles alias. Banana Resort EP, the debut release on this new venture, transports us to the sun-kissed shores of early West Coast tech house with a nod to the legends of Chicago, reminiscent of the groove finesse of Boo Williams and the melodic depth of Glenn Underground. The title track is an auditory vacation, a smooth and cool composition that captures the essence of a balmy breeze and carefree vibes.
Side B presents “Mr Boogie”, offering a more playful soundscape adorned with bobbling drums and vibrant chord stabs harmonizing with jazz-inspired leads. The EP culminates with “Flame,” presenting a more paired-back aesthetic. Thick drum beats and probing basslines lay the foundation for a minimalist yet impactful conclusion to this exceptional EP. With LITS and Different Noodles at the helm, Banana Resort not only marks a promising beginning for the label but also reintroduces us to Swirl People's status as tastemakers. Available on vinyl.
