BLNK-13 | Various Artists - Primates Love Fun | Digital

Primates Love Fun is the second installment of the sporadic but ongoing Loves Fun compilation series from Blank Artists. The series explores the idea of electronic music sans ego; in a fictional world where the only thing that matters is that you love fun. For this installment we bring back our two favorite Joshes; Cummings and Dahlberg as well as label mainstay Codine.

Cummings’ track Morning Birds sets the tone with dream-evoking textures and delayed chirps typical of a Midwestern American spring or summer morning. Rich, thick synth arpeggios drive the track, making it as danceable as it is cognitively captivating.

Dahlberg’s contribution to the compilation, Cut and Run, is a bass-heavy roller, which is accentuated by delayed synth attacks and heady rhythms. This track is a serious moody floor stomper.

Eleven Evergreen is a nod to classic EBM while simultaneously stepping forward, further cementing the sound that makes up Erik Cronin’s Codine moniker. Coming off of the acclaimed Blue Room EP, we felt compelled to give the people what they want; more Codine.
