When Gantz described the bassline on 'Stayer' as sounding 'like chocolate milk' it wasn't entirely obvious what he meant. Until we heard the final masters of this two-track release, that is. For his second second vinyl outing on Innamind, our favourite Turk comes with his usual unsettling lean: twisted samples, seasick rhythms and basslines that lurk around the beat with intent. What's so refreshing about the release is that it's emblematic not only of Gantz' apparently inability to do anything but lift boundaries and throw them yards ahead, but also of the Innamind team's excitement at being given the opportunity to test boundaries of their own and actually put the music out there: this is not a label interested in comfortable surroundings. Hence, as obvious as it may seem, both names have featured regularly on this site since their very earliest beginnings.
To celebrate the release, we've hooked up with the guys at Innamind to give away a super-limited test press of the release, as well as an Innamind t-shirt (designed by another longtime friend of the blog, and previous Hedmuk tee designer, Thelem), a Generic Greeting X Hedmuk t-shirt, and a plus-one guestlist entry to the first Innamind foray into events: Exile, presented alongside Pressed Records and featuring Gantz (a UK debut, no less), Ruckspin, Thelem, Quantum Soul and Ipman all hosted by Stig of the Dump and Kyza. To be in with a shot at winning, simply head over the the Hedmuk Facebook Page and publicly share this photo, leaving a comment as to which size of T-shirt you'd like should you win.
The competition will close on July the 12th, on which date a winner will be chosen at random by an independent third party and announced via Facebook and Twitter.
Gantz - Stayer / Lyrical Trick [IMRV005] is due for release in July, 2013.
