Review: Pat Van Dyke - presumably no relation of trance overlord Paul or owner of the most terrible English accent in the history of cinema, Dick - builds on 2018's Hello, Summer LP with a new album full of funk, bounce and rich harmonies. Falls To Pieces is part hip hop, part jazz, part fusion album with gentle keys washing over the dusty drum breaks as rock-solid bass lines underpin the lovely rhythmic guitar work. Here, more than ever before, Van Dyke shows himself to be a maturing composer, producer, and multi-instrumentalist who has developed his sound without losing his signature.
