London-based club night turned record label Sub Skank are set to kick off 2014 with a new EP from founding member Akito. The four-track ‘Metamessage’ EP will follow his debut ‘Unaquainted’ single from earlier last year and is set for release on 10th February.

Already picking up early DJ support from Ikonika, Brackles, Mr Beatnik and Last Japan amongst others, ‘Metamessage’ is the debut solo EP from 27 year-old beat-maker Akito Hearnshaw. Drawing on elements of Grime, House, UK Funky and Dancehall across its four tracks, the EP delivers a selection of fresh sound system testing club music.

The EP opens with the rugged title-track, ‘Metamessage’. Harnessing elements of all of Akito’s influences, it combines a sharp 4x4 drum pattern and stuttering percussive fills with a grimey square wave synth hook to create a powerhouse, peak time club production. The release also features an alternate mix of the track, which trades in the stomping 4x4 beat for a sparser, broken rhythm as it ups the tempo and increases the pressure.

Akito then delves deeper and darker on ‘Aqua Tryst’, the soundtrack to a recurring fantasy. Stripping back the melodies, he builds an impactful 8-bar arrangement which harnesses the energy of his early Grime influences, blending layers of tumbling percussion and drawn out waves of ambience into an incisive, industrial club cut. Switching things up again, the EP closes with ‘Bordello Bounce’, a lean and propulsive drum track which pairs its dancehall-tinged groove with heavy sub bass hits and a fog of white noise.

“Akito is an unsung hero in my book - play his edits and tracks frequently in my sets - one to watch for 2014 without a doubt”
Mr Beatnick (Don’t be Afraid / NTS)

“Metamessage is an absolute banger, been destroying raves and radio for months” 
Brackles (Rinse FM)

*Early DJ support from Ikonika, Brackles, Sinden, B.Traits, Monki, Mr Beatnick, Coco Cole, Neana, Fools & Rushmore, Murlo, Last Japan, Blackwax, Famous Eno, Shy One and more.

Sub Skank is a collective which started as a radio show and developed into regular London club nights providing a platform for unsung producers & DJs. The label aims to carry the same ethos as the club night and continue to champion forward thinking dance floor conscience music.

I’m holding on
To many things past
To anything that’s 
Gonna change my memories back

I’m holding on
To everyone good
To everything that’s
Ever been the way that it should

I’m holding on
To things you said
Before you forgot what
This love really meant to you
The words that I sent to you
Never got into you
No matter how hard I tried

Inspiration for the track Underwater comes out of one single moment, when you are underwater, you open your eyes and then you realize: this is where I come from and this is where it all started. This is me!
