Desire [LP]

Limited white colored vinyl LP pressing. Desire Marea's solo self-released debut, Desire, is a skillful stylistic departure from their previous gqom inspired work. It's an exploration of loss, displacement, and the terrifying manifestations of love in the contemporary world. "Epic, eerie, regal: a good summation of South African Desire Marea's debut album, which pushes the boundaries of club music to the limit... So raw, so scattershot, and still so intentional," writes PopMatters. "Through the use of vivid beats that should be forever enshrined within various club mythologies, fractured house rhythms, and arrangements built from unexpected instrumental movements, Marea's self-titled debut is a whirlwind of hypnotic tones and intonations intent on sacred and secular revelation" adds Beats Per Minute.
