Next to a collaborative outing on Lee Foss' Repopulate Mars label this summer, Spain’s Kevin Corral has also cooked up a brace for Foss's South of Saturn. Kevin is a new school artist who is aiming to drive the house and tech scene forward with his sound. He is apparently a firm favourite with artists like Jamie Jones and Solardo.
The opener 'Call In The Rain' has a folky vocal full of soul. It brings an edge to the slamming drums and dark, driving bass, while twitchy sci-fi FX ensures this one is set in the future. 'Spaghetti Western' is built on another D&b combo that is tight and kinetic, while this time samples of a legendary cowboy and his whistles are woven into the beats. It's a high-impact house sound with character.
