'IT WAS ALWAYS THERE vol 3'

It Was Always There Vol 3

Darsk - Lair

“Holler” is a roller aimed at the dancefloor, with spiraling, evolving layers of bass and percussion with a tongue-in-cheek nod to 2000s hip hop. It’s the second track of a five-track EP “Bend And Break” which explores contrasting moods in the evolution of a night, drawing inspiration from his recent move from San Francisco to Philadelphia and a summer spent exploring his roots in China.

Artist
Philadelphia-based producer Shai FM creates music that are shapeshifting explorations, veering from introspective headnodders to floor-shaking drum workouts. Growing up in the San Francisco Bay Area, he was influenced by everything from classic four-to-the-floor house and techno to the syncopated rhythms of UK bass and global club music. In addition to his self-released material, he has upcoming releases with Bay Area collective Club Moniker and Italian label Art Aud.

1. Ben Hauke - Dyfed Triangle (snippet)

Known for his playful approach to production, Marco continues to redefine his sound, pushing the boundaries of his sound with this new EP. The 4-tracker sees Marco traverse a broad spectrum of sounds, fusing gritty, syncopated rhythms with deep, atmospheric basslines to create a body of work that’s as introspective as it is club-ready.
