Unison EP

Description

Locklead returns to Up The Stuss with his latest solo outing, ‘Unison’. Whether flying solo or linking with partner in crime Chris Stussy as one-half of Across Boundaries, in-demand DJ/producer and live act Locklead continues to shape his take on contemporary house music. Having crafted a reputation as a go-to name for many with his sophisticated yet club-ready sound, his releases on Up The Stuss have showcased his refined ear and dancefloor instincts to their fullest. Now, the Utrecht-based artist is back as he adds to his debut album ‘Square One’ and the hazy ‘Moon’ with a new solo EP on the label, delivering a four-track selection that encapsulates his signature style — deep, hypnotic, and brimming with energy. ‘Unison’ sees Locklead flex his production prowess across a quartet of distinct yet interconnected cuts, each showcasing a different facet of his ever-evolving sound. A long-awaited anthem that has been the subject of ID requests for months, the title track brings a vibrant and immersive groove, balancing intricate textures with rolling energy, while ‘Apollo’ is a high-octane affair laced with raw drums and punchy stabs, primed for peak-time impact. ‘Mystic Nights’ ventures into dreamier realms, guided by rich pads and fluid basslines that create a hypnotic flow, before rounding things out with ‘STFUATYXP’, a dose of cosmic funk with shimmering synths and crisp percussion, perfect for moving those late-night and early hour dancefloors.
