Escondido-via-Oakland producer Shortcircles — the latest signee off Los Angeles label Plug Research — released his eponymous debut EP this week. He claims influence by artists the likes of Four Tet, Teebs, Floating Points, DJ Shadow and a “a plethora of 50’s jazz records,” so you can sort of get where his music’s coming from. Beautiful, atmospheric, finely layered and often times based on very Shadow-like cut and sampled drum breaks. Really good working music if you got a lot of papers in your IN pile, like we do here back at The Meadows HQ…
