As expected, Total Light new single Red Owl delivers the action. The opener starts with a storm-bringing howl from miles away, meanwhile the beats take on the leading role. Bleeps and bouncing riffs come together to shape this crisp audio puzzle. The second part of this fine EP comes with a more erotic and festival feel, as the Mexicans know best. Skittering drums blended perfectly with the blooming off beat samples. Furthermore, the vocal snippets every now and then give us a delicate twist, pinpointing the raw rhythm in what we call "good stuff".
