Blu Mar Ten / Akira / Nu Moon – B.R.O / Yellow River / Dark Matter / Sakhmet

2000

   It’s been a slow build of anticipation, waiting to review our next artist as we have only really hit on ‘Q’ on the Deep Rooted label and ‘Greensand’ on Cookin’ Records (as Moonchild), so far. It’s time to get a seriously impressive artist onto the Good Looking label for the first time. Simon Murrell & Steven Kite are the outstanding, Nu Moon. 

    If there’s a part of your life you ever feel needs that injection of flamboyance, that journey for a few miles in something special, or a rich splash of luxury, then take this tune for a spin and cross off some items on the bucket list as ‘Dark Matter’ will leave you feeling a million times better. The sounds these boys made took things out into the heavenly vortexes. 

This track is the only one on 45 RPM out of the the three sides for some reason too. 

   On the flip is ‘Sakhmet’ which is the Egyptian goddess of war, pestilence and violent storms. As chaos rattles the bars outside, it’s the deep, nourishing sounds of the bass, that saxophone and a very interesting break that calm the soul. It seems slightly unsettled but due to the hectic arrangement it works superbly. Nu Moon create a truly poetic and mind swelling track here, drip feeding all the vital elements of the atmospherics straight into your heart. To have made such incredible music and then go all Bermuda Triangle on us is still something that gets heads spinning. No one mentions the Bermuda Triangle much these days do they? Well, they certainly still mention Nu Moon. One of the very best on Good Looking.
