Tengo

Aus Music follows 2015 EPs from Tom Demac (AUS 1575EP), Escape (AUS 1573EP), and Youandewan (AUS 1576EP) with the second offering on the label from Toronto-born Bwana, who broke a two-year silence with his Flute Dreams EP (AUS 1472EP) in December of 2014; with his Tengo EP, he reaffirms the benefits of patience and proves that he's an artist capable of touching many bases effectively. The A-side opens up with a trance-minded thud colored with thick, swooning melodies before Drop Mechanism sets impassioned strings and sweeps over a thick, booming low-end and Due West sets out a snapping, forthright groove.
