| At long last, Night Slugs drop an EP from the label's co-founder Bok Bok. Representing his full gamut of influences as well as his label's hypercolour, bottom-heavy, club-ready aesthetic, the 'Southside’ EP is an extend manifesto of a release for the South London DJ / producer. The three tracks on the 12" share a core sound palette, one that merges raw and convulsive acid house with functionalist 8-bar grime: the warm sound of vintage drum machines and analog bass combined with the razor-sharp, dystopian digital dread of noxious sawtooths and gliding squares. Modular, geometric, stripped down and emotive, this is Bok Bok showcasing his definitive sound. |
