Black Light Smoke shares through his forthcoming ‘Ghosts’ album an intriguing and personal way to interpret house music. The tracks are inspired by typical 90s/oldschool motifs and styles, which feature melancholic and introspective states of mind, conditions empowered by the kind of samples used: well sounding drum machine loops (hardware geeks will recognize them), a less is more approach to build the groove patterns that integrate well with other part of the tracks such as basslines, pads or synths. Scissor and Thread hosts another great composition, bearing an authentic witness of sound research and depart from the mainstream electronic music.
“I found my purpose and identity in New York’s scene. House music was the soundtrack to this transformative decade in my life. There were the iconic clubs like Cielo and Output, but also the golden era of after parties – there’s nothing as beautiful as that. This LP kinda closes that chapter of my life while creating music that I feel stays true to my roots.”
