Long term admirers of each other’s work, ‘The Click’ originated after Ben Westbeech invited the Dark Sky trio to work on his forthcoming album. With four creative brains in the studio eager to showcase their sound and a variety of production techniques to match Westbeech’s hardware-laden workspace, it soon became clear that the results were feeling more suited to his Breach project. And so, NKD004 was born.

Title track ‘The Click’ draws you into some seriously dark house production with a clanging, muted heartbeat introduction. The first vocal soon gives way to an addictive, yet ominous, groove where distant hisses, unsettling chatters and swarming flies create an altogether disconcerting dance floor atmosphere. ‘The Click’ is a track whose heavy bass pads, dissonant, swelling stabs and fleeting vocal interjections will drive you to the very darkest club corners.

B-side ‘The Fallout’ is an altogether more elevating affair. Here, harmonic synths, soft key arpeggios and garage-tinged vocal and percussion work give way to an irresistibly sultry breakdown.
