Pittsburgh synth wonder and beatmaker BusCrates presses two brand new tracks onto translucent vinyl for this cutting 7″. On the A side, Anda channels her inner Gwen Guthrie on “Drift,” with an anthem for the uncompromising types who will never hide their bright burning light. Lifted from BusCrates upcoming EP Altitude, “Drift” finds Buscrates and DJ Epik combining their arsenal of vintage synthesizers to produce a sophisticated, yet lowrider-ready boogie jam that recalls Deodato’s overlooked work with the aforementioned Guthrie. On the back side, vinyl-exclusive “Serenity” is an instrumental offering that picks up the pace without disturbing the Minimoog meditation session.
