Description
Blvck Spvde and Stefan Ringer — two underground heroes of innovative heart music — merge slippery four-to-the-floor, sample-based life lessons and voicemail-infused soul to sweet effect on this debut collaboration.
Any fans of slick house will know that Atlanta’s Stefan Ringer has been on red-hot form for a few years now. Releasing forward-thinking, soul-stepping projects for kinfolk labels like Eglo Records, NDATL, Black Acre, Dolfin Records (alongside badman, Ben Hixon) and his own FWM Entertainment (featuring Ash Lauryn). Each time heralding the US dance music tradition with a tinge of UK grit often thrown in.
Missouri-based musician, bandleader and producer Blvck Spvde is a more than worthy spar mate. With a track record that moves from Hawthorne Headunters’ mid-2000s beatsy, future soul and the spiritual jazz of Blvck Spvde & The Cosmos to lacing Theo Parrish’s summertime jam “Chemistry” alongside Steve Spacek and Andreya Triana, he’s easily one of our favourite male voices.
The result is the ‘Build A Temple’ EP, which also features friends Ari Lashell, Floyd Vader and Marquinn Mason across its 30min runtime.
One for those that like their music with plenty of imaginative spice, and the next edition within Touching Bass’ dependable 12″ series celebrating the eclectic, forward-thinking sounds of their dancefloor.
