Today we have one from Fur Coat’s latest ‘Transcendental EP’, out earlier this month on Last Night On Earth. Fur Coat’s return to Sasha’s imprint is nothing short of beautiful. The new EP’s second track, 'Oculus', is particularly noteworthy. ‘Oculus’ demonstrates Fur Coat’s greatest strength as producers: the ability to curate a mood. The droning bassline and melodic synthesizer arrangement come together in a truly immersive and unique soundscape. Sergio and Israel have now come to a point in their careers where they have clearly defined their sound and stated who they are as artists. ‘Oculus’ does a wonderful job of packaging that message up into a single tightly wrapped tune. A perfect example of why these guys have come as far as they have.[soundcloud url="https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/290383633" params="color=ff5500&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_comments=true&show_user=true&show_reposts=false" width="100%" height="166" iframe="true" /]Fur Coat have been a favorite of ours over here at LAMP for a few years now and are no strangers to our blog. Sergio and Israel have been busy since the last time we featured one of their tunes. The Venezuelans dropped their sixth EP on Crosstown Rebels, released the stunning ‘Interstellar EP’ for Watergate Records, and served up remixes for artists like Matador, Nicole Moudaber, and Stephan Bodzin. All that on top of maintaining their busy touring schedule. These guys are machines! Fur Coat is back in Los Angeles on March 31st when they share a bill with the Lisbona Sisters over at Sound.Thanks to everyone who made it out to the 4 year anniversary party on Saturday! The vibes were thick, the dance floor was packed, and the booze was flowing. What more can you ask for?[soundcloud url="https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/289897560" params="color=ff5500&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_comments=true&show_user=true&show_reposts=false" width="100%" height="166" iframe="true" /]
