Visionary producer and one half of pioneering electronic duo The Chemical Brothers, Tom Rowlands returns to Phantasy with 'We Are Nothing' / 'All Night', the first solo dancefloor material since his last appearance on Erol Alkan's storied London label in 2013 with 'Through Me' / 'Nothing But Pleasure'.Once again, Rowlands delivers a double A-side single in order to commit two progressive new productions to wax. Heavily road-tested across the world in Chemical Brothers DJ sets, the sprawling arrangement of 'We Are Nothing' trips through a decades-long obsession and subversion of house music and psychedelia alike. Imaginatively sampling Canadian outsider artist Bill Bissett, Rowlands uses the poet's existential phrasing as the foundation for a rising slalom of acid catharsis, peppered with snatches of soul, analogue freakouts, and all-encompassing groove.'All Night', meanwhile, finds a different, perhaps unexpected rhythm. Here, Rowlands' unmatched studio instincts deviate in a different direction entirely, employing a searing tempo to embrace the analogue experimentation at the heart of his work, as well as an appreciation for electronic music's willingness to barrel ever-forward; the result is a worthy head spinner from both label and artist alike.Tracklisting:A.
