Felix Laband may be the first star to emerge from South Africa‘s nascent electronic scene-having released two smallish albums on African Dope, he drew the notice of the Compost camp and this album demonstrates why. Dark Days Exit is an interesting blend of Latin, ambient, folk, and lounge flavors. The production and composition is top notch throughout, but check the choppy clicks of “Crooked Breath” or the eerie, melodic “Radio Right Now” for signs of true inspiration. A talent to watch.
