Turbo Chook – Rushing (with Cruz Patterson)
If you split Melbourne producer duo Close Counters clean down the middle, half of what spills out across the table is called Turbo Chook. Don’t let it get everywhere, get as much of it into a glad bag for safe keeping as you can because its a valuable commodity, this over-tweaked poultry. Kaytranada-esque grooves, delicate key lines and spliced chords are a wonderful goo, viscous and warm underneath the verses of Cruz Patterson. If you look back a good five years you might recognize Cruz as the vocalist from jazzy Perth act Koi Child that were a bit of a thing around their one and only LP in 2016. On his lonesome he’s done features for the likes of Shockone and SUPEREGO but this is my favourite of his collaborations to date. This is a prime rib hookup, two artists giving each other their best cuts.
