Sharp Veins first emerged through the eco-system that surrounds vital London night Boxed, but his material quickly evolved at a tangent from anything resembling instrumental grime.
The Stateside producer is pursuing individual endeavours, with new EP ‘bleeds colors and puddles’ set to drop on October 20th.
The new release is the one of the first major releases since the beat maker's debut in 2015, and it underlines the dramatic aesthetic shifts at play in his work.
Speaking about the EP the producer explains: "I ate a lot of my own skin making this record. Let’s all fill up and empty out and how does the interior taint this drainage? Sometimes it’s bright and opalescent and limned with sparkle and other times it’s leaden and almost opaque. Most of the time it’s both."
'learn boxing miami' retains the sharp edges of grime production but infuses this with oddball samples – is that a cough we hear? – outlandish FX, and metallic fluorescence.
