Marquis Hawkes "Fantasy" - Boiler Room Debuts by Boiler Room published on 2016-04-11T11:57:36Z Marquis Hawkes is back on Houndstooth with a considerable punch, ladies and gents. After a string of tuff-as-nail releases on the imprint — including Sweet and Raw Materials — his debut album is now complete. Social Housing, as you'll soon learn, is an ode to not-for-profit, association-managed social housing in Berlin; a system that us Brits could learn a thing or two from, but that's another matter. "Fantasy" does exactly what it says on the tin, providing the sonic equivalent of someplace euphoric and sun-splashed during mid-August. Although firmly four-to-the-floor territory, the funk and disco influences are hard to ignore here. Cascading hi-hats, shiny arp work and detuned trumpet blares all coalesce to make this a real jam. That and those chopped-up vocals that Todd Edwards would appreciate. This is very much Hawkes' own though; soulful and jacking in all the right amounts, and part of a project that's been two years in the making. It comes complete with artwork that's as thought out and auroral. Drawn from a photo taken by Hawkes’ wife in East Berlin, Alan Oldham's (aka DJ T-1000) visual accompaniment is spot on. Marquis Hawkes' debut album arrives on June 10 2016. Sooth your ears with "Fantasy" until then.
