POWER THEME

A1:Power Theme
A2:Power Theme (Ess O Ess remix)
B1:Le Clerc
B2:Le Clerc (The Backwoods remix)



The first 12" on Bad Passion Project's Not An Animal Records imprint comes from Correspondant and Hivern Discs regular Man Power. He impresses from the off, unveiling the strobe-lit Italo chug, spacey synths and '80s electronics of "Power Theme". The Italo-disco influences are also noticeable on the stripped-back electronic grooves and Balearic guitar flourishes of flipside "Le Clerc". While both of these tracks are decent, it's the accompanying remixes that really make the EP stand out from the crowd. The Ess O Ess remix of "Power Theme" - complete with shuffling Balearic breakbeats and stretched-out, starlight breakdown - is particularly potent, while The Backwoods' remix of "Le Clerc" turns a largely dark and woozy cut into a flash of sun-kissed Balearic disco bliss.
