Lofloat EP by HNQO

Apparel Music and HNQO are joining forces for the very first time, beginning their shared journey with the Lofloat EP.

HNQO, the Brazilian DJ and producer hailing from the vibrant streets of Curitiba, hits the APDEXTRA catalogue with a fresh record, of course on Apparel Music, always proudly dedicated to the love for new sounds. His latest digital EP “Lofloat”, is a four-track journey through the raw, infectious energy that has become synonymous with his name.

HNQO, whose music has always been a reflection of his eclectic influences - from the loose rhythms of Kool Herc to the hypnotic experiments of Jeff Mills - delivers a record that blends soul, funk, and a sophisticated personal taste for House music. Lofloat begins with "Grasp" a track that immediately pulls you into HNQO's world. The opening tune is a perfect introduction, showcasing the author’s ability to manipulate rhythm and melody with a deft hand, creating an atmosphere that's both hypnotic, smooth and deeply engaging.

Following this, "Grizzly Get" ramps up the energy, offering a grittier, more textured sound that channels the raw power of the underground yet remains stylish and polished. The title track, "Lofloat," is a masterclass in HNQO’s signature style. This track effortlessly blends deep, groovy basslines, creating the coolest of soundscapes. It's a track designed to move the body and the soul, embodying HNQO's philosophy of making music that resonates on a deeper level rather than just riding a groove.

Closing out the EP is "Shady Vibes In D Sharp," a track that dips into a moodier territory. With its intricate layering and brooding bass, it’s a fitting end to an EP showcasing HNQO's versatility and commitment to pushing house music's boundaries. With Lofloat, HNQO continues to solidify its place in the global music scene, offering a collection of tracks that are as thoughtful as they are danceable.

The EP is a testament to his growth as an artist and a celebration of his ability to evolve while staying true to his roots continuously. As always, HNQO’s work is imbued with a sense of soul, funk, and fun - qualities that have earned him a dedicated following and that shine brightly in this latest release.
