Banoffee Pies Records continue their original series via a solo EP from Nikki Nair of Knoxville, Tennessee with “Number One Slugger”. A white label 12” showcasing the diversity of Nikkis bass infused productions across a range of tempos, opening with the drum heavy DJ tool “Super” with jungle swing and a vocal hook to partner. The A2 sees the appearance of the “Slug” in a siren blaring bass rhythm strictly for dance floor usage pumped with electro distortions.

The B side introduces a more mellow mood following in similar ilk to his latest Morphism release on Gobstopper Records last year which initially caught our ear. The B1 sees “Salt” drop the tempo to 120bpm for a more intricately arranged array of swirling hi hats and toms and a flowing dub infused vox. The B2 flaunts pulsating basslines and ASMR whispers with “Fidelity” in the more spooky insert of the bunch before the release comes to a close with “Stotch” on the B3. A track perfect for any closing or opening set, heavily tripped with ethereal notes and subtle percussion, a conclusive ending to this 5 track EP. Much love BP x
