NIGHT PLANE

Crack’s become very fond of Soul Clap over the years. December sees the launch of their own label, Soul Clap Records, and we’re convinced that if they like it, we’ll like it. First up is Brooklyn-based William Rauscher, going by the name Night Plane and dishing out the first 12” release. Up to this point his output has been fairly small but not without hype. Last year’s dancefloor ready re-touch of Warpaint hit Undertow, first heard on Soul Clap’s Essential Mix, was the subject of an online petition imploring Rough Trade to release the track, which to the relief of many eventually saw the light of day. Their new release Heartbeat is an accessible slice of 4/4 disco rock referencing a Hacienda-esque sound, backed up with a number of slow and mid-tempo seductive house tracks, full of carefully considered vocal contributions.
