Boska “Submarine”

04 Oct 2013 — Henning Lahmann

"Submarine", the a-side of his latest 12", is Boska's most coherent and convincing track to date. The Berlin via Norway producer's six minute 20 composition is a well-constructed treat, characterised by house-indepted, cut up and heavily manipulated female vocal samples that provide more than just an incidental, loosening accompaniment as seen on so many other generic house bangers but instead convincingly serve the track's overall intent. The piece refrains from entering straight-up 4/4 territory, leaving just enough shuffling groove to make your head nod in agreement.
