Manchester-raised, now South London-based producer Damu is gearing up for the release of his new EP Holed Up In The Hovel, out Feb. 23rd on Keysound Recordings. Inspired by the various recording spaces over the past few years where began to recraft his sound, the new work teeters between dark, minimal bass waves to more experiemental electronica, yet still dance floor friendly. In a press stateemnt regards to the forthcoming EP, Damu wrote:

“Since my debut album my wiring has changed completely; it’s the sonics of individual sounds that gets me hyped now and I think this EP reflects a bit more of a mathematical approach to music-making.”

“I’ve been tucked away in a few little studios trying to get back to a place where every element of my tunes sounds thrilling to me again. The title ‘Holed up in the Hovel’ is how I’ve felt while I’ve been working on it for ages.”

“I’m really excited by club music at the moment since moving to Croydon. I love dancing and there’s a lot of exciting nights worth dancing at; that’s been a huge inspiration to me recently. Making interesting sounds is my focus over making songs now, but considering it’s all I ever go out to, it made sense to shape the noises into something like grime.”

Holed Up In The Hovel will get released digitally as well as on 12″ vinyl.
