Jordan Peak drops 'Party Vibe' EP on his Peak Trax imprint, Feb 28th
Recent support from Radio 1's Pete Tong, Danny Howard & Sarah Story, Patrick Topping;
previously from Carl Cox, Disclosure, Gerd Janson, Groove Armada, Jamie Jones, John
Digweed, Kerri Chandler, Marco Carola, Maya Jane Coles, Seth Troxler.
Jordan Peak's triumphant return from a cystic fibrosis-enforced hiatus keeps up the
pressure with three-tracker 'Party Vibe', out February 28 th . Despite the extra problems a
genetic life-limiting condition like CF imposes, Peak's talent shines and he steps back into
the limelight with a newfound energy that's winning him support from the likes of Radio 1
and his peers, and label signings including Edible, Kneaded Pains and Moxy Muzik.
This time on his own imprint, Peak Trax 002 follows his 'Alive At Night' EP on Javi Bora's Too
Many Rules label, prominently featured by Sarah Story on her R1 Friday night show.
Party Vibe - lyrics written by Peak and performed by vocalist Londoner Jodie Paige, whose
plangent but robotic intoning of the emotional upbeat lyric couplet defies gender
expectations. House beats keep the dance going beneath a weirdly compulsive soundscape
of off-beat fluttering riffs. 'Are you down for the ride?' You will be.
All In The Name Of What? layers sabre-rattling techno beats over sharp, chopped synth
phrases joined by a stealthy bass riff as the title vocal repeats until the question 'what?'
becomes a mantra and the track's raison d'etre.
Do You Feel It? like industrial machinery left running in an abandoned post-apocalyptic
factory, building to teeth-tingling pitch until the vocal 'wanna lose control?' becomes 'trol(l)'
in the breakdown as the machinery jams. A whole film in a track, a film you can dance to.
Jordan was already making his mark before complications of his CF flared up causing
physical and mental challenges, enforcing a career gap. Now he's back, with no impetus lost,
and a store of startling new music further establishing his reputation.
'Party Vibe' is out February 28 th on Peak Trax. Smart link to follow.
