refused. is excited to welcome fresh Canadian talent to the roster with an upcoming release from Vancouver based producer OHNIN. Alias to his original artist profile James Hopkins, OHNIN is a new musical project set to explore the darker, deeper side of the techno hemisphere. “Area Code” is a 3-track EP, which dives deep into rolling basslines and grooving beats. Each track explores different dynamics from a deeper, more droning sound.
The EP starts out with “Area Code,” which is accompanied by a growling sub-bass and dark, ominous groove. The reverberated drum rolls give some nice variation which is refreshing to the overall groove of this song. “Tripped In” interplays between the hi-hats and snare, which gives this track a nice shuffled feel and energy. The droned out vocals and synth sequence in the background, give Tripped Out a lot of atmosphere. Lastly, “Make Me Feel” has a dark, low cut bassline witch interplays nicely with the kick. The overall track has a nice use of vocals with a pronounced cyclical synth line.
