Despite his young age, Carlton Doom is viewed as a legend amongst the Irish electronic scene, first making a huge impact under his enigmatic moniker Unknown with fellow Irish artist Gemma Dunleavy. Since the birth of Carlton Doom, he has gone on to release music on labels such as Hypercolour, Lobster Theremin and Hotflush, earning a reputation as one of the most forward thinking producers within the UK & Ireland. With that has come an unmistakable sound, his tracks instantly recognisable for their gritty and powerful energy. 

Doom’s latest work comes in the form of a four track EP on UK label Breaks ‘N’ Pieces titled ‘The Lost Tracks: Blue Galaxy’ the only EP which Doom had a clear picture in his head, aiming to make it sound otherworldly and not like anything else before him. Originally made in 2014, thankfully these tracks have been re-birthed, resulting in an exploration of profound thought, colour and oceanic layers.

Title track ‘Blue Galaxy’ is a place where freedom, peace and enchantment come together, blissfully interwoven into a headrest for your soul. Sprawling pads connect with yearning vocals, 
each new element adding to the feeling of interstellar migration. A grime influenced, chirpy lead is the center piece to ‘Mistriot’, keeping things fresh while incorporating signature low-slung kick drums and dense basslines. ‘Jektify’ then bounces through a labyrinth of revolving doors, managing to keep the energy at a lower BPM; the bass and lead compliment each other perfectly, richochotting from one note to the next.  

‘Life On Marble’ is a space opera narrated by Irish MC and hip-hop artist Emby. A tale of stargazing while reimagining life on a planet where we could be anyone, the rat race was no more and where sentiment was real. It’s a deeply profound end to an other-worldly EP from two of Ireland's finest artists.
