about
One Leg further explores King Lagoon's tendency toward musical cross-pollination, summing up a mesmerizing 5/4 shifting Post-Funk Latin rhythm, coursing ever-forward with psychedelic poly-patterns, cowbells, angular guitars, sweetly mutant sax and vox; this is a funk straight outta not-quite-anywhere with a breakdown that's too great for words.
lyrics
One-leg dances in the forest, oh! A wind Spins, a little wind that plays
One Leg doesn't waste time, it's time to spin Perere doesn't waste time, even though it's strange to call (for him) One Leg in a mini tornado
A mini tornado of green and red. the jungle moves!
There comes a moment, But it's not possible to change plan.
There spins a wind, Don't stop to change.
One Leg doesn't waste time, Net under the carpet...
Perere doesn't waste time But maybe there's more coming in the wind. The jungle moves!

Uma perna dança na floresta oh!
Gira um vento,
ventinho que brinca.
Um Pé não perca tempo,
É hora pra girar.
Pererê não perca tempo,
mesmo porque é estranho chamar.
Um Pé num redemuinho,
redemuinho de verde e vermelho.
O mato mexe!
Vem um momento.
Mas não dá pra trocar de plano!
Gira um vento,
não para pra trocar.
Um Pé não perca tempo,
Rede de baixo do tapete
Pererê não perca tempo!
Mas talvez vem mais no vento
O mato mexe!
Uma perna dança na floresta oh!

Like so many others, this came like a bolt out of the blue and, even though it's well before payday, I had to have this astonishing album on vinyl to prove it exists. The feel of the tunes makes me feel like the Impressions do, Curtis Mayfield, the big spaces and instinctive horns and stuff drifting in and out. Great grooves and I can see lots of ghosts nodding along to this with big smiles on their faces. At last! Anthony Cottrell
A conceptual double EP from this Chicago experimental electronic producer, who makes warped, hypnotic, danceable art. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 8, 2018
I haven't heard anything as just completely perfectly formed out of the gate--every decision the right one, what to include but more what to exclude--maybe ever. Don't know who Sault is, but they do not sound like they could be anyone who hasn't paid some dues to get this good. Or signed some Satanic contracts. 100% confidence, and it sounds 110% earned.
