Carl Finlow was one of the founders, alongside Ralph Lawson, of Leeds’ 2020Vision label and club night.
Aside from his production work on most of the label’s defining tunes, he’s managed to put together a few of his own under his pseudonym, Random Factor. Beaten is a taster from his latest forthcoming album and what a track. Kicking off to a smooth, seemingly mellow house beat, it quickly develops some jerky electro legs that set it off on a focused and funky deep house floor-filler. Dance music at its most intelligent, electronica at its most danceable.
