UPFRONTBEATS

UK producers OC & Verde have been on an upwards trajectory since their single ‘That’s Right’ received support from Steve Lawler, Miguel Campbell and Christoph ‘ here though we see their new release on Hot Since 82’s renowned label Knee Deep In Sound as a welcome addition to the impressive catalogue.

The UK duo open with ‘Maasai’ – a shadowy, hypnotic number featuring a weighty bass line and subtle, undulating percussion – then rounding off the EP is ‘Iboga’, powerfully combining a blend of soulful vocal licks and echoing bass murmurs.

OC & Verde’s ‘Maasai’ EP is out on Knee Deep In Sound 29th July 2016.
