Contributing WriterComing up next from NEED Music, the label enlists US artist Ky William for their ninth EP. His two originals come with a remix from PARKER.
House Record (Original Mix) opens up with a sliding, grooving baseline and airy hats fluttering up top. Well placed spoken word samples add detail and keep you locked in. House Record (PARKER. Remix) is a more percussive number with beats that are wonky and off grid. It’s an edgy one to amp up the crowd with a more prickly sound. Afterbeat is the last tune on the EP and is layered up with bobbing synths and daubs of late night neon colour. It’s a psychedelic closer to this fine EP.
These are interesting, functional, characterful tunes from top to bottom.
