Fool by Restless Leg Syndrome
‘Fool’, the fourth and final EP of the collection, is set to be released on June 18 and features five sample-heavy tracks laid down with a skillful mastery of turntablism. The single ‘Gönndir’ is studded with polyrhythms and a seductive bassline. With skittering backbeats and funky riffs, the EP is dynamic in its beat switches and laden with North African gems. ‘Embassadors of Rhythm’ features an instructional workshop by the iconic Egyptian percussionist and composer Hossam Ramzy (sampled by Timbaland for Jay-Z’s song ‘Big Pimpin’). Bass-heavy track ‘The Fools’ alludes to the popular Tunisian mizwed music, which uses the traditional ‘mizwad’ bagpipes and the ‘darbouka’ drum. This final EP is immersively inventive and infectiously addictive.
In the upcoming months, Restless Leg Syndrome will release Totem, a 2LP vinyl release featuring all tracks from the four EPs (currently available for pre-sale).
