Ben Rau - Work Hard EP

Ben Rau returns with the second release on his Inkal imprint February 15th, featuring two new original tracks from the German artist.

Berlin’s Ben Rau has become a prominent name in groove-laden house music over the years as resident and artist with London’s inimitable Fuse events and record label, as well as releases on label such as JusGrooveIt and Body Parts. November 2016 saw Ben inaugurate his very own Inkal imprint though, which climbed to the top of the Deejay.de vinyl sales chart hitting number 1 and perfectly setting the tone for the imprint.

This February will see Ben back on form with the second release for the label and opening things up is title track ‘Work Hard’, a smooth slice of driving house fuelled by snaking bass grooves, low-slung bumpy percussion and vacillating vocal swells, whilst chugging acid licks and the introduction of additional vocal lines gradually creep into the composition.

On the flip is ‘Ouisky’, another raw, stripped-back addition employing thunderous sub bass surges, heavily swung percussive shuffles and an amalgamation of bright chord stabs layered into a head nodding, infectious and dynamic sequence throughout.

Ben Rau’s ‘Work Hard’ EP is out on Inkal February 2017.
