Following the launch of his Trust Issues label in September with the immersive underground house cut Flint, London-based talent Tian Karl swiftly returns with his second single, ‘Don’t Lie’, from the forthcoming debut album ‘Things To Say About Words’. The track offers a hypnotic, dub-infused slice of soulfully laced basement jam goodness, serving as a perfect follow-up to his previous release.

‘Don’t Lie’ builds upon the mature and artistically refined soundscape introduced in ‘Flint’, showing Tian’s evolution as he strays from the increasingly formulaic nature of mainstream dance music. The single highlights a sophisticated production style that feels timeless and contemporary, driven by the rich, analogue warmth that his fans expect. Yet, there’s something deeper at play here—an emotional resonance that feels authentic and purposeful. Tian has woven a story into the sonic layers of Don’t Lie, creating a connection often missing in today’s mass-produced electronic landscape.
This track underscores Tian’s growing ability to fuse depth with groove, capturing the essence of underground house while pushing its boundaries. He is not content with simply producing tracks designed to fill dance floors; instead, he seeks to create music that provokes thought and feeling. His forthcoming album promises to continue this trend, offering a collection of works that are both musically vulnerable and refreshingly different.
Whether you’re a longtime follower or new to his sound, Tian’s releases leading up to his ‘Things To Say About Words’ album are set to be a rewarding experience for listeners with eclectic tastes. His unique ability to blur the lines between contemporary dance music and underground intricacies is redefining the genre, setting a new standard for what we can expect from forward-thinking producers.
