Ross From Friends returns with Tread, his keenly anticipated second album, on Flying Lotus' Brainfeeder. Following the career of British producer Felix Clary Weatherall, aka Ross From Friends, has provided a fascinating insight into the development of a uniquely talented artist truly coming into their own. An artist who demonstrates an ever-increasing mastery of his craft, Tread is a record that is at once sleek and melodic but also eminently danceable, nostalgic but brilliantly modern, with nods to sounds and styles that are not so much reflected but refracted and recontextualised through Weatherall's lens. Ross From Friends offers as many solid dancefloor fillers as he does disarming, spaced atmospherics with Tread – a defining record for an artist crammed with creative ideas taking delights in the unexpected.
