Last year in April, Manchester-based bass music newcomer G.S.ONE hosted the fourth installment in our ongoing Mullet Mix series. He's been keeping busy since then, working on his debut EP, forthcoming on Madam X's record label Big People Music.
It's clear that all the hard work has paid off. The release is called Lucid Dreams, comes out on the 3rd of March, and while it consists of just three tracks plus a remix, it packs a comparatively large punch. Like many producers in the somewhat loosely-defined bass music genre, G.S.ONE's work runs a fairly wide stylistic gamut, fusing together established genres such as House, Dubstep and UK Garage into something that is greater than the sum of its parts.
Lucid Dreams' smooth synths and dreamy soundscapes make for a fairly unabrasive and easy listen, but don't let this fool you into thinking that the tracks aren't club-friendly. This EP would feel equally at home at a rave as it would in your living room. And of course, as the title of the first track (Pillow Talk) suggests, it can also provide excellent background material to get freaky to, if that's your thing.
Cop it here once it comes out on Monday and check out BPM's and G.S.ONE's SoundCloud streams. Last but not least, make sure you listen to G.S.ONE's mix for Afromullets below.
