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.

OMAAR / ‘Mc Laren EP’ [MMBB005]

@prodomaar

OMAAR, DJ y productor del Estado de México, bien conocido por sus versátiles pistas de corte club que suelen encontrarse en rotación en estaciones de radio como Rinse o NTS.

MOVELIKE le da la bienvenida a OMAAR con un lanzamiento en el que explora su primer interés musical: el jungle. ‘McLaren EP’ incluye 7 tracks llenos de breaks energéticos combinados con pads nostálgicos que reviven la era del jungle noventero y el intelligent drum and bass.

Detrás del concepto está el McLaren F1 GTR, un auto de carreras con un historial famoso de victorias sobre lo que supuestamente eran autos más veloces. Un campeón en desventaja, podría decirse. Inspiración que se traduce muy bien a los breaks en altas velocidades que rodean todo el lanzamiento.

PREMIERE #21 Omaar - My Viewpoint (MOVELIKE)

Managed to break the months-long writer's block I had throughout 2021 (while I was focusing on finishing up the "Pulsers" EP) in the last quarter of that year. Somehow, I managed to whip up more than five tracks I was happy with over the course of the last 10 months. Here's the final result. You probably already know the drill by now. 

Some of these are coming out in some form in the foreseeable future. Most of the tracks in this mix are unreleased for now, though.
