Why do we like this?
James Welch, aka Seams, just came off a stint in Germany and a tour with Gold Panda. Sounds like an excellent end to 2010 if you ask me - brats, beers, and bangin beats. One really can't wish for more.

Seams' EP Tourist certainly points towards a strong future for this Englishman. Not only do the tracks drop like they're hot, but they can't be bothered to notice; Mr. Welch actually found the time to make his own cassette tapes (yes, I said cassettes, and no, you didn't travel back to the 90s). Twenty of them were recorded, each yellow and blue sleeve lovingly printed by Seams himself. That's called dedication, folks.

The highlights of this EP are definitely the escalating "Hung Markets" and ominous "Natchmusik."  Traces of Pantha Du Prince aromatically swirl throughout, and don't worry, Gold Panda - your intensely chill sound is not forgotten either. Listening to Tourist, I am taken from the sea to the mountains, from lust to anguish. My suggestion: turn the lights off, the music up, and take a ethereal ride with Seams. You won't regret it.
