James Saunders
- Ten Hours EP
NO ART | 22.06.2020
ANOTR welcome rising UK talent James Saunders to No Art to deliver his ‘Ten Hours’ EP, backed by a remix from the label bosses themselves.
A rising name within the UK scene, Sheffield’s James Saunders looks set to be a DJ and producer to keep an eye on over the coming months and years. Having caught the attention of No Art bosses ANOTR, he now makes his debut on the imprint this June to deliver his ‘Ten Hours’ EP, accompanied by a remix from the label heads.
Lead track ‘Ten Hours’ opens the package as Saunders introduces a slick combination of shuffling percussion arrangements laid beneath a hypnotic and warping top line which ebbs and flows throughout the mix, whilst the lively ‘Pressure Cooker’ employs drums packed full of swing alongside distorted vocal interjections and off-kilter electronics. Next up, ‘Keyless’ welcomes a darker, moodier aesthetic with a groove-heavy bassline at the core of the track, guided by icy hats and rumbling sub tones, before the Amsterdam favourites and label owners put their own stamp on the title cut and introduce rolling organic percussion, dubby pads and resonant stabs to the equation.
James Saunders ‘Ten Hours’ EP drops via No Art on 22nd June 2020.
