PUBLISHED:  Mar 05, 2013
DESCRIPTION:
Release Date: 19th April, 2013. Cat no: TR005

After bringing you the likes of Teeza and SRC on Triangulum, we're switching lanes and bringing you some Trap-inspired riddims from South Londoner Young Mind, aka Kavsrave.

Having already seen support from a "who's who" list of DJs within the Bass scene -- Girl Unit, Gemmy, Mary Anne Hobbs, Starkey, Nero, Skream, Bok Bok, and most recently Hudson Mohawke and Rustie (the latter even featured one of his tracks in his mind blowing Radio 1 Essential Mix) -- The artist formerly known as Kavsrave is quickly becoming one of the UK scene's brightest talents, especially with his recent journey into Trap/Future R&B.

Having grown up with Joy Orbison, Tek One and A1 Bassline, he's been surrounded top notch producers from day one, and has definitely carved out an impressive back catalogue, with releases on Numbers and Tighten Up.

Not content with just doing a guest mix for Mary Anne Hobbs' radio show, DJ-ing at one of Channel 4's infamous "Skins" parties, and constantly receive rave reviews from publications such as Fact Mag & Mixmag, he was even commissioned to write a song for the Hollywood blockbuster "Black Swan", titled "Illicit Dreaming". That's a certified boss move right there, which is why Triangulum had to snap him up for a release!

The title track is one for the dancefloor, with growling bass and hard gitting drums, whilst Yin Yang comes with a more chilled/melodic approach -- lush synths and a laid back flow'; both of which wouldn't sound out of place in either a Bass Music set, or an R&B rave.

Remix duties come courtesy of Mr. Mitch (who has recently caught the ear of Fool Gold's A-Trak & Catchdubs) with a savage 80bpm banger, complete with 808 bass and TNGHT-esque horn stabs, and newcomer DECiBEL (Tectonic/Speakerbox), who serves up a speaker shattering slice of Trap-meets-Hardstyle, dubbed the "Wigan Pier" remix.

If you're a fan of TNGHT, Rustie, S-Type, Flosstradamus and Baauer, then get up on this.
