Son of Kick - From Here EP + WIN TICKETS to Son of Kick's gig in Warsaw on Nov 10


Son of Kick  comes from West London and has become a permanent feature on a map of London heavy bass scene. His crazy live performances and multi-instrumentalist skills made him famous across the globe. Fans in Poland had a chance to experience his absolutely stunning live set at this year's Audioriver Festival in Płock. Thousands of people in Hybrid Tent went totally mental! He has released a few singles and great videos like e.g. Guacha, Playing the Villain or Revolution B for Way Way, Muti or Botchit and Scarper, plus several sick remixes. If you are looking for a good crossover between dubstep and hip hop as well as other bass hybrids - Son of Kick is the MAN :))

Next Thursday November, 10 Son of Kick will be a special guest of the 2nd Bday Bash of one of the best venues in Warsaw - 1500m2 do wynajęcia. Read the rest of this post to check how to win tickets to this show!!

W przyszły czwartek, 10 listopada, Son of Kick będzie specjalnym gościem 2nd Bday Bash jednej z najznamienitszych miejscówek w Warszawie - czyli 1500m2 do wynajęcia. Czytajcie dalej, aby dowiedzieć się jak wygrać bilety na tą wyjątkową balangę!!




A few days ago Son of Kick released another killing EP - From Here featuring psychic vocals of a Polish emcee RQM (currently residing in Berlin and a part of the infamous Berlin's Bass Maffia) and a set of heavy-weight remixers including: Pixelord, Rose Ryot and Night Drugs. The original From Here is a beautiful hybrid of psycho lyrical vocalizations by RQM, heavy drops, sick synths and whatnot happening in the background of this crowd-pleasing anthem. Rose Ryot offers an off-kilter, low-key refix with seriously distorted voice samples and quite weird, slow-burning beat accompanied by sick drums. Really mental tune. One of my favorite producer, Pixelord is more merciful changing the original into uplifting 2-step / future garage trip, with his trademark 8-bit synths hitting hard in the middle of the track. Dreamy and enchanting. Night Drugs definitely aims at peak of the night dancefloor experience in his smoothly rolling, party-oriented, heavy bass remix with stomping beat and talking synths. All in all From Here is a kind of release I'd like to see coming more from heavy bass / dubstep camp - superbly produced, versatile, open-minded, very catchy and entertaining. Highly recommended by Doktor Krank!!

Buy From Here on Juno, Boomkat of elsewhere in the interweb.
