Kusht - Together

Facts Kusht surfaces with a playful release full of tottery synths, crisp percussions, and mind-bending samples. On this six-track LP released on almost occult YNFND from Germany's ever rainy Baltic coast, the Scottish producer easily blends bluesy guitar riffs with wailing electronic pads. Shuffled backbeats melt with ominous samples into a sticky glue, trapping every listener into a bouncy dance. Kusht can already look back on a vivid and versatile back-catalog but still manages to top it off with a many-sided and thought-out work of art in his signature style. Full of folkloristic beats, Together has what it needs to become one of 2019's secret weapons, with early support of some of Germany's acknowledged tastemakers.
