Our new EP has a different style than the stuff we usually put out. A style which is hard to put into usual genre terms. A style we haven’t been creating so far & also not hearing a lot. That’s why we called it ‘neo’, cause it is something new to us.
The idea was to make an EP, where we would use my vocals as chops in every track to create vocal-infused beats. The main underlying vibe is definitely soulful, but with an experimental twist. It’s a dynamic EP, where every song has a story to tell as well as the whole EP does. Sweet and sexy vibes merge into feels of despair and diremption. Like maybe you know it from love. Warm, organic sound is moving towards a more synthetic and distorted place. But everything’s still in place, still grooving.

THE RELEASE
Sep 11th - "toldya"
Sep 30th - Neo EP
Producers, friends and long-time label friends Claptu and Beatmund Noise join forces on a new, emotionally-packed EP that dives deep into the heart of soulful sound with an experimental edge.
Each track weaves its own story – sweet and sexy in moments, yet layered with tones of despair and emotional rupture. It’s a new journey that pushes boundaries while staying rooted in that special feeling we human being all know from being in love.
The EP is a bold new move from the producers who are challenging the status quo when it comes to creating instrumental hip hop-inspired music, while fusing with genres that can only add flavour to the whole sonic experience for listeners.
