Rhythm & Sound, Savage

Surely one of the greatest 12"s of all time.

Released in 1999, 'Smile' was the fourth release on the label and is for many its best - a three track EP featuring Savage on the title track. There's really nowt to it, just a single washed-out pad, a kickdrum and some chords, plus that sparse vocal. It's all so much more than the sum of its parts - we have literally spent hours uplifted and moved beyond words by it.

Distance and Range on the flip offer another deep dive into the aether, fathoms, fathoms deep.
