These Are Powers lay it on thick, sweet, and sludgy for their new Candyman EP. The Brooklyn-based trio of Anna Barie (vocals & electronics), Pat Noecker (bass, electronics, vocals), and Bill Salas (beats & production) do nothing to sugar coat the grimy center of a new, bass bin rattling, electro-shock sound.

The EP kicks off with “Candyman”, a naughty nursery rhyme set to a bombastic East meets West-Indies reggaeton shuffle. The rifling bass and scattered snare shots of “Gutterspaces” emerge as dancehall back from the future, followed by the sputter to mega-life Chicago juke and drone fest of “World Class Peoples”.

The EP also includes a runway house remix of “Candyman” by globe-trotters Teengirl Fantasy and a remix of “World Class Peoples” by Costa Rica’s Cosmetics that is as much Burial as it is Scott Walker.
