Jamie Trench - The Foundation
Rising UK talent Jamie Trench returns to Roush to kick start 2018 as he delivers his latest EP ‘The Foundation’, whilst Robsoul boss Phil Weeks steps up on remix duties.
With releases on the likes of Tsuba, VIVa Music, Kaluki Musik and his own Roots For Bloom imprint, Jamie Trench’s career continues to go from strength to strength, gaining support from the likes of Steve Lawler, Santé and Sidney Charles through to Brawther, Cinthie and Move D. Having entered into the industry at an early age, Jamie soon found himself playing at some of Ibiza’s most prestigious venues including Space and Zoo Project and Privilege, going on to play closer to home at The Warehouse Project and Ministry of Sound. Here we see Trench return to Roush to deliver four fresh productions, whilst Parisian Phil Weeks offers up a classy remix on the flip.
Title cut ‘The Foundation’ opens the EP and sees Trench layer organic percussion shots and delicate hats under an ever-evolving synth lead, before ‘Blow The Back Out’ unveils a drum infused workout, laying down tough rolling kicks amongst quirky vocal shots.
Next up, ‘Turn You Around’ transports listeners to sunnier territories as an influx of bright pads and soulful vocal hooks work in tandem with garage tinged interludes, whilst Weeks’ interpretation introduces the Frenchman’s trademark skipping drums and effortless groove throughout.
For digital purchasers, Trench also offers a dubbed out version of the title track as ‘The Dubnation’ skillfully lays the focus on a low-slung groove line and murky undertones.
Jamie Trench ‘The Foundation’ EP is out on Roush in January 2018.
