Dot Erratica

Dot is the beat making part of the Augsburg based Hiphop-Duo «Blindspot» and the kind of guy to bang out an instrumental hiphop album on vinyl in 2014, which was considered pretty ballsy in times of hologram live shows of rap legends. But the first personal hello to the world, the solo full length «Alice» wasn‘t a shy «hello», more like «oh hi guys, mind if I show y’all how it can be done?». A keen smack in the faces of those that didn’t believe in this kind of music anymore, engrossing the listeners whole attention.

Now we have every right to be pretty damn excited for our brains to deal with new material Dot has to offer. A nine track strong EP called «Erratica». As assumed, we’re not going to be disappointed here. Still heavy drum work, still beautiful samples, still top-notch arrangements. The single songs may change a lot in themselves, leaving the impression of it being way more than nine tracks.

As for the sample and sound choices, there are more rather subtle elements intertwined in the deliberated constructs, which provides refreshing additions to his personal note. There is still plenty of organic, raw sounding drum programming and percussion, perfectly put together with catchy melodies and kind spheres. Another release in its own league: It’s a Bangerrrr!

Single sided lp with screen printed b-side. Limited to 300 copies.
