Kenneth Scott and Emilio Orlandi aka Moniker coax heartfelt emotion and hand-crafted grooves from an array of beat-boxes and synthesizers without making any self-conscious moves to demonstrate how "undigital" they are. The live aspect of Moniker's mission undoubtedly shines through, manifesting itself in smart switch-ups and breakdowns, impulsive edits and subtle variations. In keeping with the warm tones of the original material, Detroit deep house legend Patrice Scott takes "Billy D" and runs it in a hot bath of shimmering pads and submerged acid, while the beat snaps forth with an urgency that offsets the ambient elements perfectly.
