K-LONE turns summer edits into a free little Brighton heatwave

K-LONE’s summer edits is a small release with a very clear seasonal function. Released on 9 June from Brighton, the two-track set offers edits of Caroline Polachek and Chanel Beads material as a name-your-price download. That makes it feel like a gift dropped into the electronic calendar just as the weather starts asking for looser rules. Edits occupy a strange and valuable place in dance and electronic culture. They are not always grand original statements, but they are often where producers reveal how they hear movement inside other people’s songs. K-LONE’s choices are smart too: Polachek’s elastic pop architecture and Chanel Beads’ art-damaged indie textures both contain enough atmosphere to be pulled toward the floor without losing their identity. summer edits is not trying to be monumental. It is trying to be useful, stylish and replayable.
