Syclops
A Blink Of An Eye
2013 sees more rubbery, playful computer funk from Sheffield mainstay, Syclops.
The party line is that Syclops is a four piece featuring instrumentalists Sven Kortehisto, Hann Sarkari and Jukka Kantonen, although a bit of rudimentary sleuthing suggests that Fulton’s sidemen might well be products of his own imagination. The project’s been in operation for some time, with a debut 12″ of loose-limbed electro arriving way back 2001. Subsequent EPs got some under-the-radar love (plus a shout-out in Four Tet’s excellent 2006 DJ-Kicks mix), but 2008′s electro-funk masterwork ‘Where’s Jason’s K’ blew up in a big way, cropping up in the upper echelons of plenty of end-of-year lists. A sorely underrated LP for DFA, I’ve Got My Eye On You, followed the same year.
