Crewdson – Trapdoor // Song Of The Day #244

Isn’t this just the strangest week? I feel like I’ve pretty much sleep-walked through the last few days – and now we are faced with that most surreal of spectacles, a royal wedding.

Here, then, is a suitably dreamlike track for today’s Song Of The Day. Crewdson is a London producer dealing in slightly nightmarish, pseudo-2 -step that sounds both playful and really quite ominous. ‘Trapdoor’ is a slinking, stop-start track that brings to mind Micachu or maybe Hot Chip – before descending into a Blake-like ARP orgy in the final section.

‘Trapdoor’ is out in June on Slowfoot. In the meantime, pick up Crewdson’s Dust EP.
