Hurry up & Live

 


My acquaintance with Timm Sure & Ampo aka Coyote basically began about 10 years ago with a triple album or triple release. When I was looking for new music on Beatport, I came across Harlyn Bay, was completely excited about this new Balearic sound and was excited to discover that there were already 2 other LPs Half Man Half Coyote & Gliding Time.

Since then, I've actually blindly bought every single one of their releases, often on vinyl, but always at least digitally. There are also countless remixes and mixes regularly published on SoundCloud.

Here, too, we are basically dealing with workaholics, but workaholics who always have maximum fun in mind and signal pure joy in life.

They actually found their sound straight away and have been refining and confirming it again and again for 15 years. The voice samples they often build around their tracks are exquisite. In their recognizability they remind me of the BBC Workshop Samples by the Orb. Completely different, but immediately recognizable.

“Hurry up and Live“ is a new mini album from the beginning of the year with 6 tracks full of Balearic pearls of all kinds. “We got Lost”, “Show me” & „Cirrus“ are classic Coyote tracks that you can find on all their long players and never get enough of. Male and female voice samples, Spanish guitars, dubby house rhythms ….. 



The album was detailed and aptly written as always by Adam Turner for the wonderful Ban Ban Ton Ton, here:
