Groove Culture EP by HKNC

HKNC makes his Hottrax debut with his precise blend of groove-driven rhythms on the two-track Groove Culture EP.

Based between Vancouver and Istanbul, HKNC is a seasoned DJ and producer with over a decade behind the decks and eight years in the studio. Having previously caught attention with tracks like "Mas Que Nada" and "Ortaya," racking up over a million combined streams in the process, he now brings his maturing production style and sound to a new home as he steps onto Hottrax for the first time with his two-track "Groove Culture EP," crafting a two-track package designed to move dancefloors.

Opening the EP, the title track "Groove Culture," featuring Turkish pairing 1TWO, layers hypnotic rhythms with punchy percussion and a rolling bassline, establishing a commanding peak-time groove, before "Tube Town" follows with a slightly pared-back approach, combining crisp drums and melodic textures while maintaining kinetic energy throughout. With this debut, HKNC introduces his sound to Hottrax audiences with two cuts that hit the spot, demonstrating a balance of technical skill, rhythmic sensibility, and a clear feel for modern club-driven house music.
