DjRUM will release a new EP on Houndstooth.
Meaning’s Edge is the UK artist’s first release since 2019. It’s also “an introduction to a whole new world,” we’re told.
It was created in the final stretches of six rather traumatic years of work. Having carefully honed his techniques, finally he began to work in a quicker, lighter fashion—and to cleanse his palette a little by bringing in a fresh ingredient: his own flute playing.
The use of flutes—including Bansuri, Shakuhatchi, Western Classical, and synthesised all blending and blurring into one another—gives it a “coherence and a sense of airiness that unites the five tracks over half an hour, however divergent their beats get,” we’re told.
