Sceada Mantikor

Bukaddor & Fishbeck - Mantikor [Traum, 2008] (d/l)
Cologne based duo Baggy Bukaddor and Tim Fishbeck has had quite a productive year with three twelves on My Best Friend and here's their fourth, now on Traum. This twelver with the two tracks Sceada and Mantikor will not be released officially until the 7th of january 2008. No doubt a good kickstart for the next year. Sceada is a real beauty, consisting of thought out and varied melodies, with catchy basslines and proper percussion, this one will surely be enjoyed by many. The b-side is Mantikor. A Manticore has the body of a lion, a human head with three rows of teeth and either a dragon's or scorpion's tail. Scary. Well this track lets the listener onboard a ship for 10 minutes of trippy riding through the minds of Bukaddor and Fishbeck with the mythic creature as the only other passenger. Like a high pressure tempest, it's lethally dangerous. A tough call choosing a song here, but I'm going with Mantikor for its slightly more straight forward ways. Buy when it is available!
