A new project from London-based producer Hungryghost, aka Alan Dobson (also a member of the Son Records-signed hip hop crew Def Tex), Arcadion is an attempt to put a modern twist on the percussion-heavy funk, or go-go, sound of 70s and 80s acts like Trouble Funk, Tilt and The Junk Yard Band. Along the way he twists in elements of dub and electro, piling on heavy basslines and infectious beats that pretty much force you to get up and dance. Dobson released his first single as Arcadion, ‘Ghost Feeder’, back in December via DC Recordings. The follow-up, ‘Fly Vision’, came out on the same label last month, and sees the project progressing into something really exciting. You can check out both the singles on the MySpace page, linked here.
