Takovoi – Milkshake EP on Leng Records – An Underground Gem

Takovoi, Lengs most mysterious artist, returns with his third EP for the label showcasing the depth and variety of his hard-to-pigeonhole trademark style. Born and raised in Russia but now based in Tbilisi, Georgia, Takovoi (real name Iraklii Tavartkildaze) has only released two EPs to date – both on Leng – with his latest four-track collection following 2019s well-received debut, The Fox With The Dog, and 2023s Perfect Match EP. Both blurred boundaries, exploring a wide range of interconnected sounds and styles while remaining loosely rooted in nu-disco and sun-splashed Balearic soundscapes. This subtle eclecticism is also evident on this latest EP. Milkshake, is an attractive but hard-to-define affair in which his own spoken word snippets, hissing drum machine cymbals, undulating bass, spacey synth chords and exotic saxophone solos combine to create a genuinely inspired electronic sound world. In contrast, In An A sees him enter the psychedelic realm via sparse, shuffling machine beats, sweet chords, whispers of guitars and waves of restless, mind-altering TB-303 motifs. By the time his vocalisations and low-slung bass guitar passages appear, youll be locked into the acid lines and well on your way to a far-flung planet. No. 44 sees Takovoi lean further into his influences, peppering a staccato, off-kilter beat with warm chords, tumbling analogue lead lines, moody melodic motifs and the kind of lo-fi bleeps previously heard on Kraftwerk cuts and early bleep & bass club tracks. Chicken Soup is heady and intoxicating, with glistening, effects-laden electric guitar textures and meandering, kosmiche-influenced synthesiser sounds ushering in eyes-closed vocalisations, lo-fi drum machine beats and sunset-ready chords.
