Premiere: ex.sses ‘silicon’
Ex.sses debuts on TT label with two experimental club cuts exploring “physical sensation, material and the gendered body”
ex.sses is next up on London’s TT label with the ‘scanner’ EP. Hear the B-Side, ‘silicon’, below.
The DJ, producer and Balamii resident takes inspiration from writings on “physical sensation, material and the gendered body” to create two cuts of abstract club music. Techno-like rhythms become agitated and disjointed, while eerie melodies and shadowy synths are fleshed out with heavily altered field recordings and voice notes. This is intense, exciting music that keeps a foot firmly on the dancefloor, even when at its most intricate.
The title track is described by ex.sses as an encapsulation of the “tension between a hard metallic space and a wetspace”, while ‘silicon’ is described as “the transitory segment of the night - laying in anticipation of its inevitable climax”.
‘Scanner’ is out tomorrow, 1st September. Pre-order it here.
