Given that this is Ben Worrall’s fourth Crackazat 12″ for Local Talk in less than three years, it would be fair to say the project now has a regular home. As with many of his recent tracks, “Proton Blue” looks to classic US garage for inspiration, peppering a bouncy groove with rich organ stabs and jazzy synthesizer melodies. It’s accompanied by the alternative “Deep Orbit” version, a more hypnotic and slightly more spacey interpretation that gives greater prominence to the producer’s jazzy synthesizer riffs. “Called My Name”, meanwhile, is a soulful, jazzy and fluid affair blessed with a hazy vocal and some luscious jazz guitar. The cut’s loose and languid jazz-funk influences are explored further on the arguably superior “Meet the Band” remix.
