Damu Holed Up In The Hovel EP

“This EP started as war dubs for Keysound nights," explains Damu. “I really like the competitive vibe of the scene in London and I worked on the EP across Manchester, Sheffield and Croydon from 2013-14." “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."
