Polyrhythmic, composite-rhythm beat construction meets R&B collage — there's no shortage of knotty, programming-heavy dance productions out there, but the singular sensuality of these hooks and the funky groove feel genuinely new. Highly recommended! NZO, whose debut on the limited-press 12-inch series from DEMDIKE STARE's esteemed 〈DDS〉 was a stunner that got everyone talking, comes back — this time with a full album!

NZO, led by SOYO, who made a spectacular debut on the must-buy limited white label series from cutting-edge electronic hotspot 〈DDS〉 — home to the likes of SHINICHI ATOBE and MICHAEL J. BLOOD — drops a debut album! There's "AXMM" (sample1), a half-step x polyrhythm workout with congas and synths locked in intricate call-and-response; "K-space (baum Bap)" (sample2), which drops in sultry vocal chops while aiming for the midpoint between UKG and singeli; and "Deadweight" (sample3), a mutant UKF cut built on his signature R&B sampling. Deftly layering rhythmic formats and leaning hard on syncopation and polyrhythm, this is a truly remarkable piece of next-dimension rhythm experimentation. NZO is, frankly, overwhelming. You can preview every track from the tracklist! (Original Japanese text by Akie)
