Sometimes, a bird needs to step away from its flock in order to tell a different story from the rest of the gang. Tim Shaw, part of the respected Manchester-based collective Doodle, decided to fly solo for his very first appearance on the mighty Sprechen. Under the moniker of Amuse Bouche, Tim presents “Serendipity”, an impeccable reunion of five inspired-by-the-past multi-genre cuts focused on triggering not only nostalgia but also a sense of freshness on the dance floor.

And yeah, we had to check: “Serendipity does not come from Latin or Greek, but rather was created by a British nobleman in the mid-1700s from an ancient Persian fairy tale. The meaning of the word, good luck in finding valuable things unintentionally, refers to the fairy tale characters who were always making discoveries through chance.”

Amuse Bouche’s “Serendipity”, in turn, “goes all jacking & wonky with some 80’s style breakdance beats alongside synth lines and rumbling bass notes which builds around a stuttered vocal sample before dropping to deliver the goods. Mutant-Cosmic-Breakdance is the order of the day here”, as perfectly said in the official press release of the soirée.

You can find (and buy) this and other music pearls on the Beatport page of the label.

Follow Sprechen, peeps!
