All rise for Skeleton King. The Bristol based producer lines up his Lobster Theremin debut with Deep Into The Night four tracks that highlight the emotional nuances of the skeletal sound.
Skeleton King has a knack for the large; be it lairy, UKG basslines or lo-fi alternative pop there's a quiet confidence in his ability to jump between genres so effortlessly. 'Anxiety' begins as a half-time, bass-driven stepper and finishes on some sort of ragga-dub tip, and those horns! Clearly inspired by the producer's time in Bristol it's an instant rave starter. 'Deep Into The Night' combines the producer's love for breaks and garage on a wubbed-out, atmospheric 2-step before 'Of Course, All The Time' pursues the cinematic on a marching, ancestral rhythm.
We finish on 'There's Something About You Boy'; wriggling synths, malfunctioning electronics and wifey riddim pitched vocals creating a pop-driven euphoria amongst the UK energy. A massive EP from a super exciting UK emerger.
