Donegal’s Keith Mannion has followed up his There Goes The Lights Again EP as SlowPlaceLikeHome with his fourth EP, Post-Hoc. Retaining Mannion’s recognisable motivation to explore interweaving synthesizer and percussion passages, the new EP has a more contemplative tone, and less vocals which makes for more reflective electronic scapes in general. Still there is room on a couple of tracks for the beats to dictate the mood. It’s out now, listen here:
