Kim & Buran release new luxuriant cosmic disco single ‘Phazerdelique’!
“Phazerdelique” is the first single off the forthcoming album “Tramplin’” from St. Petersburg electronic disco veterans Kim & Buran, their second long player on Nang.
“Phazerdelique” is nearly 7 1/2 minutes of luxuriant cosmic disco pulsing and sweeping along on top of a classic Italo groove that never feels like it actually needs to go anywhere in particular or needs to actually end. On the right dancefloor, at the right time, it will earn it’s right to exist outside of the normal constraints of time and space, and just be.
Diskette’s remix ups the bottom end’s ante with a stompy, new beat bassline, and punchy drums, but keeping the all-important sense of drift and dispersal in place.
Kim & Buran is a Vyacheslav Zavyalov’s project based in St.Petersburg. His music is a mix of space disco, easy-listening, space age pop and downtempo. In his childhood in Siberia (city of Khanty-Mansiysk) Slava was charmed by Jean Michel Jarre, Space and Ennio Morricone, sci-fi movies.
