Mr KS - Take a Trip ep with POINT G & OLI FURNESS remixes

Recording info

Mr Ks aka Jean-Pierre Baroni is one of the latest emerging talents from French electronic music, alongside a new generation of artists from France who are making a serious impact on the house and techno world. A student of classic Chicago and French house, Mr KS dishes up an exemplary 4-track EP on the ever-impressive Music Is Love label, complete with high-grade remixes from French compatriot Mr G and label boss Oli Furness.

The first of the originals on the EP is Take a trip,, a bumping bassline forms the fore of the track, flowing infectiously over siren sounds that grow in presence, cosmically off-set against the trippy male vocals. Built around an undulating bassline, Mr KS dishes up more head-nodding house goodness, carefully cultivating a strong sense of groove-heavy rhythm to his music.

Oli Furness brings home a stomping house remix of Take a Trip. Prolonged synth sequences flail fluidly beneath the tampered vocal of the track, building before a flourish of heavy-hitting pads that pack with a powerful punch. The synth chords weave back in momentarily, while lo-fi hi-hats and sporadic keyboard flourishes flesh out the track, coalescing over the trippy vocals until the resounding keypad breaks and surging bassline carry the track on it's course.
On the flip B1 see the 2nd of the original tracks on the ep. Groove on starts A heavy kick snare and intermittent wood block shots kick off proceedings, rattling against the moody and bumbling bassline, which simmers and carries the track organically through. Vocal hits play out, bouncing off shimmering keys pads, fluidly coalescing against the ticking percussion sequences. The end result is a stripped-back, hypnotic house opener that will go down well in any peak hours set.

French don Point G completes this strong 4 track ep, asserting his unique musicality on this record, reaffirming why he's still one of the most revered and influential names on the underground circuit. Quickening the tempo with his remix of .. meandering acid pads, ticking hi-hats and marching drums intersect the pace over sonic, oeuvre textures. Synths whirl in the background against the deeper, growing percussion rhythms, taking the atmospheric track to far out terrain; It's the sort of raw, inventive house and techno that has made Point G into the household name he is.
