Hyperdub

hdb061

Info:

All Nite Ep Is The Young Mancunian Waltons Second Set On Hyperdub, After His Very Well Received Walton Ep Debut For The Label In 2011. Title Cut >all Nite< Kicks It Off With Warm Plucked Strings, Diva Moans And Lazer-like Synths Stretched To The Point Of Anticipation Over Cracking Grime Handclaps And Bass Drums, Until The Track Drops Into A Blocky Bass Line Playing Hide And Seek With Low Arpeggios That Spiral In And Out Of The Mix, Over A Giant Pounding Metallic Kick Drum Before Layering On The Warmth Again. The Whole Track Plays With A Fine Balance Between Warm, Disco-like Lushness And Exuberant Roughness. >mallet< Is Driving And Darker, Building Detuned, Bell-like Tones Over A 4/4 Beat Accented By Breaks And Fills And Gaps, Dropping Into A Big Bass Line And Syncopations That Disrupt The Beat And Bring The Drama. >kush< Is Different Again, Taking The Pace Down With Low End, Synth Hip Hop With Glassy Chords, Running Over Woozy Pitch Shifting Rhodes Chords Fed Through A Layer Of Crackly Gauze.
