about

The sunny weather might have come and gone, but here at inHabit HQ we stay bringing the heat regardless – the struggle continues!
This next release is a really special one for us, as our friend Echo Brown returns to the label for the first time since his Stutter EP with a double-edged sword forged from another kind of alien steel. Since that EP came out in 2019 he's been popping up on all kinds of crazy labels (Shogun! The North Quarter! and 1985!) and carving out a very solid name for himself as a man with many strings to his to his bow, and honestly we could not be happier. It's so nice to have him back, and it feels particularly nice to be able to release these tunes that show off a moodier side of his undeniable set of skills than some of the other labels who have been rightly scrambling to sign his material.

'Gully Dance' enlists the frankly iconic vocal talents of Flowdan (I'm not going to insult him or you by telling you who Flowdan is or why it's a huge deal for us to have him on the wee-little-Irish-label-that-could (if you know you know and if you don't you're definitely not reading this) to build up a whole new kind of woozy, wonky, deconstructed dancehall banger.

Kicking off with an epic intro, battering ram kicks, and expertly raising the energy with layers of percussion and more twists and turns than the Donegal rally, this one is sure to have the knees knocking from Raleigh to Ranelagh.

'Block Work VIP' is a salty weapon, all square waves and sub, acidic squelch and sonar bleeps, with an escalating sense of tension resolving into pummeling urban tribalism. There is A LOT going on in this tune, and it's all brilliant. Play this when you need to see people's faces contort, when you want to see their shoulders rolling, when you need to escalate things a little. It will work.

It's an immense privilege to be able to get this one out to the people, we hope you enjoy it as much as we do, we hope you're staying safe out there, keeping it real and watching yourselves and each other as we slowly get back to the clubs and the dances. We've played these tunes over and over again on the biggest setups we could find and between Echo Brown's studio ninja skills and Heights' expert mastering touch we reckon they will absolutely strip every flake of paint off all four walls of any venue you care to play them in, so g'wan out there and give it a lash.
