Space Dimension Controller returns to Aus Music with six tracks of superb cosmic adventure. Thie EP arrives as a six-track 12" including exclusive vinyl-only cut "Acid Funk Sequel." Space Dimension Controller is an intergalactic musical explorer. His sci-fi sounds paint technicolor pictures in widescreen. Whether crafting definitive albums like Love Beyond The Intersect on R&S, club-ready EPs for Aus and Running Back or dropping collections of unreleased tracks on his own Tiraquon Recordings, his work sounds futuristic yet nostalgic for the past. It is fueled by funk and crafted on synths, hardware, tape machines and various other imperfect tools that lend it a loveable character. His Final Quest EP is a "French-inspired" release, which is an influence that predates the Space Dimension Controller alias and goes back to Hamill's teenage years. It is also the last EP from his current studio before it is dismantled and moved to Amsterdam sometime this summer. From start to finish, this new EP showcases Hamill's ability to craft emotionally evocative melodies and genuinely absorbing soundtracks. Opener "Jet Free" is awash with filtered synths that are sugary sweet and underpinned by funky guitar riffs and laissez-faire grooves. The wonderful "Cryfaze" has rueful pads spiraling around sleek drums that bounce along next to supple neon harps, while "Tiraquon's Final Quest" is a bubbling and elastic rhythm run through with soft acid squelches and pixelated pads full of cosmic charm. "1 4 U" rides on heavier drums but is no less joyous thanks to the crystalline melodies and dreamy vocals that swell the heart. "Acid Funk Sequel" is another playful moon safari with buoyant bass patterns and snappy drum funk under ever-evolving melodic refrains and "Beyond2" closes down with forlorn, introspective melodies that ripple over heavy-hearted chords.
