"I Like That (Jungle Music)" opens Sempra's "Call Me EP" on the Future Classic label with crisp, racy drums and a hushed vocal. It's a true homage to ‘90s breakbeat and hardcore, with dreamy synths and pitched-up vocals at the forefront, while a dark reese bass sneaks up on the track's euphoric arrangement throughout. The title track, "Call Me," continues with more brightly sung lyrics carefully laid on top of a subtle garage beat complemented by lush, dubbed-out chords influenced by R&B.

"Call Me" is a body of work I'm really proud of, and is a great continuation of the evolution of my sound as a fusion of my many influences. I believe the release represents my progression in not only my songwriting and chord progressions but also my engineering and how to get the tracks perfect for in and out of the club. I hope you enjoy listening to it, as much as I did making it!

Next up is "Embrace," another contemporary rhythm and blues-inspired track fused with jungle tempos. The drums hit hard, juxtaposed with a joyful vocal and Sempra's signature chord sampling. In this overwhelmingly glistening release, the breakbeat anthem "Tender Love (Need Your Kiss)" rears its head with a dash of darkness in the form of a ripping reese bass, once again offset by pretty melodies and passionate vocals. The aptly named "Goodbye" then has its rave stabs switched out for chopped-up soul instrumentals, making for a high-tempo yet organic dance track closing out this stellar offering. This package again proves why Sempra is one of Jungle's most exciting emerging producers.

Bristol-based DJ and producer Sempra has been honing his craft for the last ten years, making quality music spanning jungle, hardcore, garage, and R&B. With releases on labels like Coco Bryce's Myor and his own Draconian Audio, he made his debut on the influential Australian Future Classic label in 2022 with the "If It's True EP." Now, Sempra returns to the imprint known for artists like Flume and SOPHIE with the "Call Me EP," continuing to play his part in the bustling UK garage scene and jungle resurgence while winning the support of exciting artists like Nia Archives, Amy Dabbs and Denham Audio.
