DV8 EP by Harvey McKay

Harvey McKay debuts on Rekids Special Projects (RSPX) with the DV8 EP.

The title track of Harvey McKay's "DV8 EP" on Rekids Special Projects starts with driving and shuffling drums shot through with jazz-inflected chord stabs. It's techno with an authentic soul feel yet perfectly suited to work the dancefloor and sets the tone for the rest of the tracks.

With so much focus on playing it safe with music these days, with this release, I felt I really needed to push myself to innovate and create new fusions of styles, cultures, and musical influences in techno, as I feel that's what keeps the scene alive in the long run.

Up next, "Footstep" sees the Scottish McKay fuse an evocative vocal with organ riffs and more powerful and raw drum work before "Rasta Woman," where the Soma, Cocoon, UNCAGE, and Bedrock artist once again pushes his drum machines by blending hard-hitting rhythms with earworm vocal snippets, closing out a club-ready release brimming with attitude.
