Atlanta-based DJ; JSPORT, spent the start of the global pandemic meticulously learning the craft of production. After countless sketches, they have created five otherworldly drum poems for their debut EP, “Out of Bounds.” 

Whether it’s a bass, a snare or a clang, percussion is front and center at almost every moment, but always paired with a careful attention to melodic detail. 

The release opens up elegantly with Zenon, as sparse, detailed patterns are sprinkled on top of an infectious house groove. Next is the sinister yet sexy Gully Bop, where a soca-infused pulse meets darker UK style bass. Capoeira Drum is an intricate network of shuffling rhythms, with each hit moving together as if they were intermeshing gears. Panting breaths and baile funk style horns weave in and out on Hyper Drive, through a maze of stuttering high hats and ghost vocals. Guillotine Drum closes things out menacingly, with aggressive slams riding a wave of humming low end and wails from the abyss. 

Cadences from the Caribbean, South America, and the rest of the African Diaspora are carefully pieced together here with JSPORT’s own interstellar vision of club music. There may be intense layers upon layers of percussion on this release, but these aren’t just DJ tools like most drum tracks tend to function as. They’re rich and full, beautifully detailed, and serve as vessels for an exciting new universe of sound, which adds JSPORT to the ranks of producers pointing to the future of global dance music.

Producing and DJing for the better part of a decade, Crush Mood Trax (@nebula1) is a true veteran of the Perth scene, whose style is influenced by a wide range of underground club sounds from Grime to Juke. 

Originally recorded in North Perth during lockdown, ‘Butler Ave’ is inspired by the emerging US East Coast club sound from producers like DJ SWISHA, Kush Jones and OSSX, which draws on the legacy of genres from the region like Jersey and Baltimore Club, and Chicago’s Footwork and Ghetto House. Aggressive kick patterns, hypnotic keys and fragmented vocal stabs combine to concoct a frenetic, yet melodic club banger.
