An EP with its origins in the island nation of Sri Lanka, "Yavapai / Horus" brings together a trio of outstanding talents. Combining across two distinctive tracks, Dimuth K, A-JAY (SL) and Shannon Davin create a collaborative masterpiece.

From the Colombo capital, Dimuth Karunaratne has beguiled the underground dance fraternity through his Dimuth K contraction. Involved in music throughout his life, Dimuth quickly became a sought-after DJ, "transfixing crowds with his groovy, progressive house sets". Moving into the production arena with his unique style, Dimuth K quickly found his work reaching the catalogues of the finest underground imprints after a debut for Big Toys Production in mid-2015. Going on to feature on the likes of Balkan Connection, Movement Recordings and Max Graham's "Cycles 8" in January 2017, Dimuth K continues to strike a chord with support from Hernan Cattaneo, Nick Warren and Gai Barone.

An accomplished DJ with performances alongside such notable figures as Jeremy Olander and Above & Beyond, A-JAY has been a regular across the clubs of his Colombo home city with his tech and deep house infused music. A production career has brought similar success after 2015's "The Monks Haunted" debut for Egothermia. Further work for Patent Skillz, Suffused Music and Occultech have continued to find the Sri Lankan in much demand in both the live and production arenas. Another early adopter of electronic music, Shannon Davin's early dreams blossomed into realisation when he found techno. Founder of the ‘Reverb Underground Movement' which created a DJ collective of young artists developing entertainment for young audiences, Davin's production career finds him with almost a century of production credits. Patent Skillz, Lethal Dose and Mistique Music have all featured the Sri Lankan's work since June 2015's collaboration with Eightfold on Diamond Blu and January 2018's "Hildr" EP on Plazma Records showcasing highly impressive production credentials.

Returning to Particles after remixes of Simply City and Tim Penner, "Yavapai" is Dimuth K's first original material for the label. Teaming up with A-JAY, the track is characterised by a strong, rolling groove filled with percussive intricacy. Building impressively, a swathe of incongruous melodic lines twist and turn together in stuttered and freeform glory. Through a coruscating array of rhythm and melody, "Yavapai" is a study in technique and innovation. 

Partnering with Shannon Davin on "Horus", Dimuth K continues with a strong rhythmic groove on "Horus" as a huge analogue bassline fills the lower frequency range in raw sine wave power. Introducing melodic components in the second movement, delayed chords criss-cross the stereo spectrum in hypnotic glory while a chorus of sixteenth shakers and off-beat hats supply dancefloor urgency in a track that evolves intelligently over its near nine-minute voyage.

Sri Lankan underground dance talent is in full evidence as Dimuth K, A-JAY (SL) and Shannon Davin provide a golden sunlit touch with "Yavapai / Horus".
