Pools: Innertubes (Colored Vinyl) Vinyl 2LP

Debut album from Pools on double colored vinyl! DJ Morse Code and (Thee) Mike B first went under the Pools alias back in 2011 with a pair of secret weapon edit EP’s on Spills. Fast forward four years later and the West Coast duo bring a full album’s worth of laid back disco and house vibes for Brooklyn’s Razor N Tape imprint, just in time for the summer season. As their name and title suggest, these tracks are primed and ready for poolside and beach partyjammin’, with soulful grooves and seductive samples re-worked with a slow chug for life on vacay mode. Check the vibe on “Lil Triceratops,” “Spread Love,” “Power Questing,” and the uber mellow “Penwick Pool.” Also includes a handful of remixes from Luvless, Junktion, DJ Vas, and Thatmanmonk. Recommended.
