Jumping

On a Wednesday in June

Brabe’s left-field tech-house productions have been periodically popping up on my radar for the past several months. Honestly, they’re kind of hard to miss if you spend enough time dredging through miles of Beatport muck.

Although loosely rooted in the “fidget” house scene Brabe at some point undertook serious efforts to distance himself from the genre. He even went so far as to produce the mother of all avant garde “fidget” mock-tracks entitled “Is This Fidget? A Musical Commentary”. Get lofty!

Leaving his predictable pitchbend-happy vocal cut-up obsessed contemporaries behind, Brabe now maturely opts for dark cinematic ambience, eerily dissonant samples, sparse jungle breaks, and bubbly acid synths. Anyone familiar with HiJack’s recent material can clearly see why he scooped up Brabe for a release on his Jack Union imprint (out this week). Cures even the most serious fidget hangover.

    Sounds almost identical to the last Hijack ep, which is definitely NOT a bad thing. Awesome sound
