DJ Slyngshot – Workshop 29 [WORKSHOP29]

DJ SLYNGSHOT - WORKSHOP 29

The mysterious DJ Slyngshot has stayed rather low key since debuting in 2014, but his music has an alluring and unique charm that has made him a real underground favourite. He now debuts on the cult Workshop label with four dreamy, drifting breakbeat tunes for those in the know. The raw and rugged opener is simple but effective, A2 has thumping kicks and old school pads and B1 is a dreamy, acid laced groove full of physicality. B2 closes out with jungle samples and warped synths that cry to be played loud on a huge system. These cuts all sound at once retro but also as if beamed back from the future.

Koga – Hive Mind EP [OCP001]

OCP presents their debut release, coming from Koga, Frankfurt underground DJ and connoisseur of the M1 organ bass. The ‘Hive Mind’ EP contains four well executed tracks that are likely to disintegrate dance floors around the globe. Title track ‘Hive Mind’, featuring Simon Moncler, is a Brooklyn-style techno jam packed with hard hitting RZ-1 hats, while ‘Survivor (M&M’s techno will survive mix)’, featuring Maurice, freshly connects trancey elements with breaks and bleeps. The B side kicks off with ‘Fox Undercover’, a jam displaying developed knowledge of clunky baselines and pounding grooves, the 12″ rounds of with a bass-heavy remix of ‘Fox Undercover’ by DJ Slyngshot.
