Digital Discourse vinyl

The brainchild of New York-based producer and Archivio Records founder Daniel Dutts, Risk/Reward talk a big label game: without risk, you cannot hope of a reward. On their latest EP, which affirms the label's now well-hedged reputations as risk managers, they welcome Philly duo Post Play (Sweater and John Raffaele) to the portfolio. A primal, basic lexicon is invoked in plain English track titles, from 'Go' to 'Danger', singling out the primacy of dance music over our critics' preferred mode of logorrhoea; they also serve, of course, to remotely insist on that basest of basic instincts: to dance. Bushwacka!'s remix of Danger delivers crisp percussion, deep bass, descendent lasers, and a "talking" synth reminiscent of the homonymous bush.
