Number - Discoid (inc. Tranquil Elephantizer Remixes)

Following on from Number’s previous single ‘Amber’ which included a remix from the iconic A Certain Ratio, we see them return with ‘Discoid’, taken from their highly acclaimed ‘Pollinate’ LP, this time remixed by the mighty Tranquil Elephantizer.

Tranquil Elephantizer are a producer and live-electronic/DJ project, whose sound navigates the intersection of organic rhythm, immersive texture and dance floor precision. Drawing from deep house, jazz, dub, downtempo, and psychedelic electro, their work is built around hypnotic grooves and layered percussion, with releases on respected labels such as Wicked Records, Future Boogie Recordings and Red Laser Records.

Inspired by a love of A Certain Ratio, Talking Heads, P funk and scratchy dub, NUMBER is a forward-thinking sound machine fronted by Ali Friend and Rich Thair – the co-founders and rhythm section of music pioneers and renegades, Red Snapper. Rich and Ali started NUMBER as a means of rediscovering something of what they grew up with; the dirty disco bass lines, noisy drum machines, wonky percussion, leering live drums, jagged guitar melodies and uplifting soulful songs of the 80’s.

Number’s LP, ‘Pollinate’ on Ramrock Red Records continues the journey, focusing on Ali’s unique vocal style and lyric writing and the duo’s reputation as one of the UK’s most influential rhythm sections. Preorder vinyl album here - https://ramrock.bandcamp.com/album/rrrlp017-number-pollinate
