US producer, Kiefer Ian, is a prime example of how the UKG flavour has broken out of its British origin and is now being explored across the globe. Standing tall on the shoulders of greats, rather than imitating or recreating, Kiefer’s sound does well to incorporate his own musical expression whilst preserving the iconic rhythmic drive so iconic to the genre’s sound. 
 
Walk Tall cements its place within dim lit smokey clubs as well as on sun drenched rooftop terraces. Hypnotising listeners with its swirling synth work until recentering them back to the dancefloor with a driving beat, the track perfectly balances the pacey rhythm of the old school sound whilst entwining it with the floating electronic ambience of the modern day producer. 
 
Piano chords reminiscent of early house productions display the versatility of Kiefer’s productions, who is evidently able to draw influence from all corners of the underground music scene. By combining influences of UKG, house and techno, the producer's releases are able to stand strong in a number of environments, whether it's through a festival sound system or in a back garden boogie. 
 
With a plateau of release already under his belt, Walk Tall is a triumphant development in Kiefer’s sound, exciting us for what's to come next from the musical polymath.
