Tony Quattro - Unguard

Tony Quattro – Unguard

By Corey Maass

They live in the mud under the porch. They came from the same womb, but something went horribly wrong. Drums roll eerily, flies buzz almost melodically, and the once warm and inviting bass is somehow now terrifying.

Nan Kolè x DJ Tess - Homemade Ep

Nan Kolè x DJ Tess – Homemade Ep

By Corey Maass

Simple melodies leave the beats space to breathe, ironically leaving me breathless with switchbacks, subtle pattern changes, and detailed reverb creating just enough depth.

DJ Doraemon - African Voices

DJ Doraemon – African Voices

By Corey Maass

Soupy reverbed-out spaces and voices make you take off your headphones to make sure no one is talking to you.

African Imperial Wizard - Cetshwayo KaMpande

African Imperial Wizard – Cetshwayo KaMpande

By Corey Maass

The EP moves slowly out of darkness into light, with marching snares and swelling tones. The people come together, chanting away evil, and overcome the wicked and vile.

TC4 - Grooves

TC4 – Grooves

By Corey Maass

Corey uses TC4’s excellent “Grooves” EP to wax nostalgic about garage in the early 200s. It’s a great EP.

DJ Icebox & Happysoul - Molecules EP

DJ Icebox & Happysoul – Molecules EP

By Corey Maass

The momentum of the bubbly riff is countered only by the steppy African beats and occasional sweep to mark time.

Skee Mask - Iss004

Skee Mask – Iss004

By Corey Maass

The brutal stop-time acieed of “Jugg” by Skee Mask, sets the tone for this EP. Bass as percussion, Percussion as bass.

Z-KAT - the Forgotten ep

Z-KAT – the Forgotten ep

By Corey Maass

The simple elements that can make a great dance tune – scratchy samples hook you, driving bass propels you forward, and a great beat with subtle variation keeps you dancing.

DJ Kayo - Cocaine

DJ Kayo – Cocaine

By Corey Maass

It’s a delightfully breathless six minutes of pure pressure.
