James Pants adds another limited release to his growing arsenal (‘KA$H’ 12”, Rhythm Trax LP, & a forthcoming project of hip-hop remixes), but this time around, he delivers the rarest of the rare in new age music. This is no Yanni affair here, but rare new age breaks & beats. Could this become the new trend for breaks? Stay tuned for his debut album (April 29th).
"Next big thing to watch in 2008"
BUSY P (XLR8R 'BEST OF 2007')
"The 16 tracks on Welcome jump all over the place, taking in everything from electro to 80s soul, new wave and 60s psych, but all of them share the same lo-fi punk aesthetic and are adorned with Pants' unique quirky shouting and falsetto vocals"
DAZED & CONFUSED
“Blue-eyed synth soul from Texas? Why the hell not!?... Future Shock-era Herbie Hancock, L.A. electro, New Age-y French disco, and Paradise Garage love-funkists Skyy may inform the tracks on Welcome, but while the record borrows from these and other roller-rink-friendly ’80s grooves, it’s no jukebox-style revue.”
