Resonance Records co-owner George Smeddles returns with ‘Hard To Find’ featuring two separate collaborations alongside Jimmy D and Ying Yang plus a remix from label founder Max Chapman.

Smeddles’ recent releases have appeared on formidable labels like Erase Records and Toolroom, but most of his output has landed on Resonance Records ‘ the UK label he runs alongside Hot Creations and ElRow producer Max Chapman. Joining him on this release are two London newcomers; Jimmy D and Ying Yang.

Alongside Jimmy D, ‘Hard To Find’ sees Smeddles blend together quivering synths, a meandering bassline and stuttering vocal samples for a stripped back cut boasting a low-slung groove. Max Chapman then reinterprets the original, incorporating a medley of percussive elements to inject the track with plenty of rhythm before Smeddles teams up with Ying Yang for ‘Club Control’, featuring snappy snares, trippy atmospherics and sultry bass.
