Following a series of much-played slo-mo house productions under the Duff Disco guise, Londoner Jeremy Duffy dons his Duffstep alter ego for a trip through downtempo pastures. Getting To Sirius is his debut full-length, and as first albums go, it's a bit of a doozy. Musically, it concentrates far more on mood and texture than genre, uniting disparate rhythms and beat patterns under a warm and cozy sound that's best described as warm, deep and horizontally appealing. So, we get delay-laden dubstep outings with deep house chords and samples such as "Free" and synth disco and hip-hop fusions like "Love The Freak" interspersed with Balearic dub outings ("Tired"), downtempo loveliness ("Love") and erection section smoochers (the sax-heavy "Close Your Eyes") - all of which ooze cozy afterhours charm.
