A beautiful comeback record of sorts for Marc Rigelsford's Magic Arm project. The 45 is a taster for his own privately released, and utterly fabulous 'Dance Mania' full length, currently available via his Bandcamp page. Recorded in isolation in a former whiskey distillery, 'Dance Mania' is "Magic Arm whittling and distilling sound down to pure forms, a collage of songs, mood pieces, drones, found sounds and stirring instrumental passages". The two tracks here are lifted from the album, with its A side, the majestic 'Good Views Near North' having already attained 6music airplay. The song's treated piano opening offers no hint to the beautifully incessant, kinda' motorik groove that then takes over - wonderfully skewed and quite otherworldly perhaps. The groove then changes tack again as it closes with cellos and strings aiding further it's general 'out there' mood. It's a beautiful piece and by releasing it on 45, one would hope to push Marc's music out a wee bit further, certainly it's a thrill for Feral Child to release it and it's flip, the more electronic, and equally fabulous '432' is just great too.
