Given her runaway success in recent years, it was almost inevitable that Peggy Gou would launch her own record label sooner or later. Wisely, she’s chosen to kickstart said imprint – the freshly minted Gudu Records – with her first EP of fresh material for over 12 months. A-side “Starry Night” is an unashamedly positive and life-affirming affair, with Gou placing bouncy piano riffs, sultry South Korean and English vocals and Boyd Jarvis/Paul Simpson style synth-bass atop a snappy, late ’80s style house rhythm. There’s a similarly retro-futurist feel to the equally loved-up “Han Pan”, where Gou’s attractive vocals once again catch the ear alongside heavy analogue bass, chiming synth lines and Kwaito influenced drums.
