Slumberjack EP

Originally published on Alt Media

Perth duo Slumberjack recently rose to prominence being featured on Triple J Unearthed. Following on from this buzz they have now released their debut self titled four track EP.

They have clearly put a lot of time and effort into this EP right down to the fine details of pacing throughout. Opening with the R&B infused chill-trap track Body Cry ft. Father Dude before building into Horus, which incorporates middle eastern sounds, then closing with the two best tracks The Others ft. KLP and Felon.

The Others has obvious drum and bass influences along with a new wave sound reminiscent of Flume but still uniquely their own. Felon is a hard hitting trap anthem that is sure to fill dance floors this summer.

For a debut EP the level of polish and quality of production is fantastic and a great first salvo onto the scene, if only there were more of it.

**** 1/2
