EEKKOO – Towers (Original Mix)
Initially posted to mau5trap's Soundcloud as brief ID track, EEKKOO's "Towers" is another shining example of the young producer's music first approach towards his art. Indicative of the label he calls home, the mau5trap understudy's latest brings to life a nightmarish haze of sandblasted synthwork and mechanical hisses. A death march of macabre progressions and razor sharp sound design, "Towers" marks another un-marred output from the Montreal-based prodigy - and the start of a healthy career led by innovative rather than assimilation.
DA Premiere: Eekkoo – Lekture (Original Mix)
Off the forthcoming We Are Friends Volume II EP, mau5trap stand-out Eekkoo's "Lekture" represents the very best from Joel Zimmerman's forward-thinking label. The first artist deadmau5 followed on Soundcloud, Eekkoo's style mimics that of his outspoken mentor, a style that focuses less on easily-palpable gimmicks and instead designs intricate and attentive electronic soundscapes. A strange journey through an assembly-line of mechanical hisses, clicks and pops, Eekkoo's latest establishes a familiar mau5-y feel with his own unique touches.
