Longtime appreciator of this sub. After the pandemic, it was one of the things that kept me connected to the weirder edges of dance music. It gave me the same feeling I had catching L.I.E.S. artists out for the first time, listening to Sandwell District (Falling the Same Way, OMG), or seeing Silent Servant play small parties in the early ’10s. So it feels right to finally share one of my own.
“Politics of Attention Deficit” is from my new EP, Grove Adjacent, which came out last week. I’m a DJ/producer in Brooklyn. The title comes from this flood-the-zone era of nonstop information overload, and the track is a dubbed-out rave tune built around a lot of sub-bass. The EP is named after the Grove, a stage at the Sustain Release festival upstate that started out as its ambient/deep-listening stage. I painted the cover myself with Krink markers.
This one’s for y’all keeping the weird music chugging. Happy to talk about how it was made.
