The Focus Energy/Motive Order twelve inch takes Seams’s lush electronica in a new direction. Having captured the essence of the Berlin summertime with the ‘Tourist’ EP, Seams returns with an altogether more dancefloor orientated release. Driven by a desire to make audiences dance at his live shows, a much more propulsive sound manifests itself across the two tracks, both built from the same ingredients but taken in two very different directions. Focus Energy‘s minimal percussion and vocal stabs push Seams’s sound further towards the techno production hinted at in Hung Markets, whereas Motive Order rearranges Focus Energy‘s parts into a denser wall of sound, filled with arpeggios and noise, evoking the spirit of the Border Community fold.
