Kincaid returns to Control Freak for a main label release with the Sugar EP - 4 saccharine, club-ready weapons from a producer at the top of his game.

Drawing on an array of club sounds from trance to UK garage and the best in contemporary leftfield techno, the EP marks our most rave-ready statement yet, with percussive drum tracks and soaring euphoric pads - carefully crafted for dark rooms and packed dancefloors.

On the A-Side, 'Air-ism' and 'Sugar' bubble with peak time energy - a pair of secret weapons which haven’t left our record bags for months now. B1 'E' is a pounding, energetic 4x4 pumper, whilst 'Sycamore' closes things out with moody, shuffling drums and powerful low end pressure.

All tracks written, produced and mixed by Joe Arthur.

Pressed by Deepgrooves - Europe’s leading ecologically-friendly plant for sustainable vinyl production, made using 100% green biomass energy.

𝐇𝐔𝐑𝐅𝐂𝐋𝐔𝐒𝐈𝐕𝐄 ➟ Kincaid - E

He didn't give much away, his mouth said one thing and his eyes another. She couldn't work out if this was just in his character or if he just had no interest in communicating with her; either way it intrigued her to no end, she wanted to get to the bottom of it. Rather than deter her, his dark eyes and his icy stare drew her further in. There was something behind it, a story that needed to be told, and she wanted to be the one to hear it...

Hard at work since 2008, Egyptian producer Hassan Abou Alam has shared his musical fruits with the world via labels like Rhythm Section, Naive and Banoffee Pies, which explore and blur the borders between breakbeat, techno and bass. For his next outing, he lands on Rinse resident Roni's Nehza Records with a new four-track EP called Ice, that once again showcases his versatility as a producer. Crafted using a mixture of analog and digital gear, the resulting tracks are packed full of textural sounds, meticulous drum work, fx saturated vocals and squelchy bass.

@nehzarecords tee up their fourth release, a debut from the amazingly talented Egyptian producer @hassan-abou-alam. For anyone not yet familiar, ‘Ice’ should provide a fine introduction to the artist’s unique sinewy and bass-heavy sound.
