Food Pyramid Creation Beat 12″
(TAN014 – released on 1-15-2013)

In a year of near synth overload in my personal listening, Food Pyramid have me convinced they’re the real deal. Many groups cull their sound from disparate influences, but for my money, few weave them together so effortlessly as Food Pyramid.

Creation Beat finds the group focusing a little more on the dance side of their sprawling sound spectrum. Four tracks that find common ground between Schnitzler / Schulze synth worship, 80’s deep house and lengthy psych jams. For those familiar with Food Pyramid’s fantastic Mango Sunrise LP, tracks like “Oh Mercy” and “I Know What I Saw” are excellent reference points for the journey ahead. Spaced-out, head-nodding grooves that seem both a natural step forward and an excellent addition to their growing body of work. You could play this record for fans of everything from Tangerine Dream, Manuel Göttsching, Asmus Tietchens and Chrome to Yellow Magic Orchestra, Giorgio Moroder and any French space disco. They would all find something to enjoy. This is definitely music that pumps with life.

Creation Beat is limited to 300 copies in DJ sleeves and comes with a full digital download.
