Inside EP

Walton kicks off 2019 for Tectonic with 4 cuts of pirate radio infused dancefloor orientated DJ tools. Inside EP follows on from Walton’s exceptional Black Lotus LP, which dropped on Tectonic last summer, gaining widespread acclaim - even rated as The Guardian’s ‘Contemporay Album Of The Month’!

What we have here is 4 tracks that all sit around the 130bpm mark, providing grime sonics to a techno compatible form. Built for those who don’t really give a f**k if you call it techno, grime or bass blah blah so long as it bangs in the dance and moves those feet.

Sampling snippets of MC’s chatting between tracks, each track takes a mostly functional approach, building raw elements in a simple but effective fashion. Bullet #2 sets the scene, kicking off with a radio style wheel up - before dropping into rolling 4/4 square wave power moves. Inside follows the mood, building towards a more rolling technoid construct. More Cowbell bangs out like an old 4/4 grime anthem with a contemporary production sonic, while Gunshot Clap closes out the EP, with its swooping square wave stabs and background shouts from behind the mic.
