To infinity and beyond! Is a hokey quote that best describes the solar soundscapes seething throughout German producer Portformat's latest record, The Repeat Factor, which is available now via various online retailers (Tokyo Dawn Records).
You could also say that NASA-compatible Hip Hop Funkadelica is what to expect on Portformat’s debut album as well. The Repeat Factor is a surprising debut effort that orbits around space themes of the 70s and golden moments of 90s R’n'B. Guest appearances from various quirky neo-soul sirens like Georgia Ann Muldrow, Shuanise, and Suzi Analogue shine brighter than the obscure hip hop vocals from relatively no name MCs such as Obey the Altar Native, Joe Kickass, Thesaurus Rex, and more, but Portformat's pristine planetary production will keep your attention nevertheless.
Below are two of my favorite tracks from the album. One track features vocals from an MC I wish I could hear more from in Chicago MC, Bless1, and the second track highlights a talented songstress in the United Kingdom's very own rising talent, Shuanise.
