Shiba San releases ‘Excluded’ EP
Shiba San has brought his hip hop infused house sounds to another EP entitled Excluded. The four-track EP sees the French artist join Sankeys‘ label Kaluki Musik for the release after dropping EPs on Majestic Casual and his frequent home at Dirtybird earlier in 2018. This new body of work shows off his subtler side, as he strips down to the basics and creates intrigue through infectious basslines and clever synthwork.
Excluded kicks off with its pseudo title track, “Exclusion.” Starting out in an almost minimalist fashion, it slowly builds to reveal funky synths and sampling, presented across funk-driven bass progressions that could qualify for the “Deepest Of The Year” award. “Look Back” brings the EP slightly out of house’s nether regions slightly, withs= a hypnotic, retro through line that highlights acidic synths to create a familiar, yet timeless feel.
