Description
Jesse Bru joins forces with Max Ulis this April for the collaborative ?Similar Nature? EP, comprising five original cuts from the duo and pencilled for release on SlothBoogie Records.
West Coast Canada producer and DJ Jesse Bru, as well as being a regular on SlothBoogie Records, has been releasing his twist on contemporary house via the likes of Happiness Therapy, Pulse Msc and Inhale Exhale amongst others in recent years. Here we see him team up with fellow Vancouver-based artist Max Ulis, who also operates as one half of the duo Sabota. Max has been involved in Vancouver?s Underground as a DJ, and promoter for his SLAB parties for over a decade and is now carving out his sound as a producer.
?Banh Mi? leads the way and much like the Vietnamese delicacy itself lays down a delectable soul-infused feel filled with dubbed out chords, distorted drums, and vocal chants. ?Moisture Cult? follows and retains a similarly dubbed out feel, fusing spiralling stab echoes and pulsating subs with shuffled drums. ?TBH? then shifts focus over to a modern electro feel with crunchy 808 drums, snaking arpeggio lines, resonant leads, and elongated subs.
Up next is ?Semblance? which twists and turns through choppy breaks, intricately intertwined bass stabs, plucked synths and airy atmospherics before ?Big Chirp? rounds out the release on a raw house tip with swinging drums, squelchy acid bass tones and sweeping ethereal pads.
