The core components of a Moon B cut don't differ all that much from release to release. From Omega Supreme split 12"s and recent 1080p cassette Lifeworld, through breakthroughs on everyone's favourite weirdo boogie emporium PPU, native ATLien Wes Gray keeps it consistent. If it ain't broke...

Though if we were to break it down, it wouldn't be impossible to fix back up. At a rough guess, you've got: featherlight pads set against chunky 505 basslines; spindly LinnDrum patterns with just the right amount of saturated crunch; plus trademark cute Roland melodies, the sonic embodiment of those shimmering PPU jewels, or little beads sloping down the neck of a beer.

Sometimes it all fits together a little wonky, but that's alright; you get the feeling it's purposeful. Gray's way with effects is such that he can seemingly drop a track down to a syrupy x.75 time before picking up the pace with no fuss.

Given the apparent effortlessness of his abstract funk squiggles on record, we thought we'd peep Moon B's 'under construction' phase – to give a flavour of the forthcoming and sketch over a few choice previous compositions. Surprise surprise, it's 35m of sunny side up joy.
