Maryland resident Bradford Johnson crafts space-traveling beat music on his first solo EP, M0ths, released under the name Busy. The sounds on “A Camphoraceous Elixir” (go ahead, look the word up) are not dissimilar from his west coast counterparts on the Brainfeeder label—Johnson’s hip-hop tendencies provide the same sort of slapping backbone for his synthetic cosmic noise experiments. However, Busy’s nine-song EP comes to us courtesy of Japanese label Circulations, and marks the arrival of a producer strong enough to get a solid East Coast/West Coast rivalry going.
