Wisdom Teeth co-founder K-Lone is dropping two EPs on Aus Music. The first installment, which nods to UKG and house flavors, landed in mid-May, while the second offers a deeper, broken techno vibe and arrives in late June/early July. Opener "Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah" is a deep and bubbly cut with dubbed-out rhythms and a one-vocal refrain that's looped, panned about the mix, and doused in reverb to serve as a trippy hook.

Further stabs, deft synth details, whirring pads, and neon colors all add detail to this warm, dynamic sound. The fantastic "Elastick" is a tight and kinetic minimal kicker with gorgeously smeared pads. Fresh sound designs bring it to life next to lush background chords that layer in plenty of signature K-Lone color.

"Shook" is a dubby and bouncy rhythm with rubbery bass and glitchy hits that hook you into a world of gloopy pads and heady cosmic ambiance. Last of all, "Brake Root" keeps the good vibes coming, this time with a tumbling broken beat that makes you shake your body loose amidst balmy pads and beautiful melodic curlicues that ooze late-night soul.

UK trailblazer K-Lone heads up the label Wisdom Teeth with fellow producer Facta and has released everything from club-primed garage to innovative home listening records. Whether cooking up kinetic beats and bouncy bass or soundtracking a lazy summer's afternoon with synthesized bird calls and lush marimbas, the London-bred artist is a proven studio wizard. Critical acclaim has come for both his "Swells" and "Cape Cira" albums. His "Catching Wild" EPs for Aus Music offer yet another portal into the colorful world of his idiosyncratic, signature sound.
