Zenzile – Pearls

The zinging bass kickstarting this song gives some clue about what’s to follow. The bassline is indeed hefty but, as it soon turns out, this is actually a laid-back piece, a head-bobber and slightly melancholic low-rider. The sparse instrumentation acts as an enhancer for sinuous synths, scattered percussion and that awesome sax towards the end.

“Dark eyes pearls in disguise

Nested in fossil cases

Recording encoding

Time and continuum

All bassines and the beats

Cause those earthquakes and tsunamis

And centuries reunborn

Spawned a new breed

Hidden in the shapes of seaweed

And sand a right band of lunatics

Leaving dark cloud stained hieroglyphe

Above mediterranean waves were

A moon sits cutting the horizon”
