Poor J'Darr - Power Strike - KAIZEN @pleasegivemeyourskooma
KZN015

A Club Constructions homage, retold through the lens of an Athenian soundboy.

Athens wonder-kid Poor J’Darr unleashes ‘POWER STRIKE’ —a high-pressure, percussion-heavy transmission that carries the torch of the label’s legacy into a new era of rhythmic warfare.

Where Greco-Klub dynamism collides with BALLROOM aesthetics & the raw power of UK sound-system culture, ’Power Strike’ keeps the focus on kinetic energy and club functionality.

No unnecessary flourishes - just pure, pressurised impact.

Tracklist:
Power Strike
Skooma Dealer
Ballad

Full Release: 30 May
First Single: ‘Ballad’ – 28 March
Second Single: ‘Skooma Dealer’ - 25 April

Power Strike - A no-nonsense, Ballroom workout where rolling percussion and sharp whistles slice through the club with relentless force. Guided by sub-heavy weight and Jersey Club acrobatics; the power of a punchy kick and mutated snare never felt so good.

Skooma Dealer – GQOM meets Club Constructions with a mix that’s tight, dry, and direct. A hypnotic, breath-heavy chant forms the rhythmic core, punctuated by sharp bursts of energy and a mischievous flute. A modern-day Pied Piper; Poor J’Darr’s seductive sound-design and playful aesthetics, tease us into the unknown with perilous re-percussions.

Ballad - Thus ends our epic tale. Ballad opens with low, wailing sirens—melancholic and foreboding, like the Kokytos itself, mourning in perpetual descent. Squelchy, distorted drums ride the Siren sisters' call, luring the unwitting toward their fate. When the drop hits, it crashes like percussive wreckage, quaking the dancefloor in tension and power, harnessing the chaos of the sea in a fitting finale—KAIZEN-certified with echoes of early Walton.

Athens wonder-kid Poor J’Darr unleashes ‘Power Strike’ —a high-pressure, percussion-heavy transmission that carries the torch of the label’s legacy into a new era of rhythmic warfare. 

Passed down from the baton of Walton and Silas & Snare, the signature style of percussion and pressure is alive & well in Andreas Nikoloulias’ KAIZEN debut.

"Shady and sinister, they're on a strictly hoods-up, heads-down tip. Think moody dubstep with the addition of some subtle percussive seasoning and you're there."
