Ramadanman Blimey

Back In stock! Celebrating its fifth release, Hessle Audio co-owner Ramadanman delivers his first EP on the label, fresh from the success of his remix of TRG's Put You Down and a 12” single on Soul Jazz Records. The A side is occupied by 'Blimey' - skeletal drums act as both the driving force behind the tune and the framework around which the merest hint of melody is assembled. A subtly melancholic, minimal floor shaker. On the B side, the energy levels are raised whilst the tempo is lowered on 'Drowning (Version)'. It’s a tune which harks back to the glory days of dark two-step, reminiscent of El-B at his most brooding. Fractured and stripped down 808 sub-bass underpin shimmering melodies, which provide rich textural warmth for the track. Closing the EP is 'Tak'. Scattered, clipped electro drums mutate around growling, punctured bass in a tune which will appeal to both dubstep purists and fans of minimal dance music in all its forms.
