Flashmob’s new EP entitled ‘Switch’ is set to drop on Audiojack’s flourishing Gruuv imprint, featuring three originals and a remix by Hobo.

Since making his debut on Get Physical back in 2011, Flashmob’s music has amassed millions of views online, topped numerous charts, and been released on Defected, Connected and Objektivity, while his unrelenting work ethic has seen him launch Flashmob Records the label, which has won support from BBC Radio 1, Skream and Eats Everything for its turnover of standout club tracks. Now, the Italian DJ & producer offers his first release for Gruuv, joining the ranks of Emanuel Satie, David Mayer and Marc Romboy for 4 tracks of nuanced yet direct tunes.

‘Switch’ gets the EP started with hypnotic organ chords buried in heavy kick rhythms while synths and vocal samples filter in and out of focus, making for an invigorated dance floor opener. Hobo’s remix comes next as he spices up the mix with huge reverbs, before ‘Moaning’ offers a bending electric piano and wayward atmospherics for an immersive listen. It’s then left to ‘My Instinkt’, an energetic number that injects fiery drum programming alongside a jittering keyboard hook.
