Tomson & Benedict: 'Repossession EP' Out Now
Having been huge fans of 'Rainy Things' released last year on the ever excellent Freerange Records, we were very pleased to receive this three track beauty from Tomson & Benedict, via our good mutual friend Matthias Vogt. The Manchester based duo have risen to prominence on the back of some rather impressive releases, garnering support from folk such as Jimpster, Osunlade, Deetron, Josh Wink, Laurent Garnier and Paul Woolford. Their sound encompasses old school house, garage and techno with a forward thinking infusion of electronic sounds and arrangements.

The 'Repossession EP' is an amalgamation of two heads firmly routed in house, yet resolutely influenced by a vibrant Manchester scene. Both Tomson and Benedict take turns on solo excursions on this EP, coming together beautifully on title track 'Repossession', creating deep and hypnotic grooves with splashes of colour and texture.
