about

HTS released on May 6th an EP by Tokyo-based DJ and producer WRACK called Yozakura, after his appearance on "Seven Seas" compilation in early 2022. A perfect blend between vocal gimmicks and sharp rhythms, infused with reggaeton and dembow elements, UK Funky drums, R&B vocals and more.

On July 15th, SHE Spells Doom, Kaval, Rumina, Miss Jay and Sonia Calico have joined their strength to remix Yozakura EP.

The EP begins with the contributions of SHE Spells Doom, remixing the opening and eponymous track “Yozakura”. The Zambian producer, who appeared on HTS two years ago with the mesmerizing “Icy” cut on the Summer Comp 2K20, continues to blend elements of Gqom, Rhumba, House and Techno in a spinning manner, giving a swirling atmosphere to the original track with heavy drum programming.

Right after, it’s time for Kaval to enter the dance with the remix of “Pak”. The French producer hailing from Toulouse, member of Egregore Collective, Ruff Club Collective and Riddims Supplies, offers what he is particularly renowned for : a percussive and incisive track using the MPC2000, his only production tool, inspired by UK Funky, Hard Drum and Jungle productions.

Then, two of the most promising club music producers of the moment, Rumina and Miss Jay, tackle the track “Tribell”, the heat wave of the original EP. While the Malmö-based producer Rumina, member of the FNGRLCKN collective, defies genres categorization with a high speed remix full of pace and hard kicks (in line with her track “bgai” released on HTS in early 2022), the Milan producer Miss Jay blends Baltimore Club, Ballroom, Footwork and EDM kicks/synth lines.

Lastly, after all these tumultuous disruptions, the EP closes with the remix of “Ai” by Taipei-based and representative producer of Taiwan’s dance music scene, Sonia Calico. Primarily influenced by UK bass music, she gives this time a proper Amapiano turn to the original track, a perfect way to close this trip through many different underground club music genres with slower rhythms and roaring basses that warms your body.
