High Cutz Vol.2

Rough Recordings returns with a vinyl only EP this July coming courtesy of Black Loops & Innocent Soul with their three-track ‘High Cutz Vol.2’ EP.

Italian, Berlin-based producer Black Loops has been steadily building his reputation for soul-infused raw house grooves over the past few years on labels like Catz N’ Dogz Pets Recordings, Toy Tonics and Neovinyl, and here we see him joining forces once again with fellow Italian producer Innocent Soul for ‘High Cutz Vol.2’ on Rough Recordings following ‘Vol.1’ which was released on Toy Tonics earlier this year.

‘The Lady’ kicks off the EP with organic percussion, bulbous bass tones and a thumping kicks running alongside an amalgamation of sweeping, filtered sample lines and hooky, dubbed-out vocal phrases.

‘From The Street’ follows, stripping things back to dusty drum sounds, floaty stab sequences and intermittent jazzy Rhodes and horn licks as a walking bass line carries the groove throughout. ‘Smoke Signals’ then rounds out the package with bumpy kicks and emotive strings samples at its core before the latter stages ease in funk-infused guitar licks and a choppy resonant bass line.

Black Loops & Innocent Soul’s ‘High Cutz Vol.2’ is out on Rough Recordings 9th July 2018. Tracklist
