EXT041 – Bass Stuff, marks the emergence of the most recent alias “Dun Dun”, by the Portuguese producer Diogo Vasconcelos.

Essentially marked by timbral richness and an elaborate programming of percussion sounds, “Bass Stuff” draws some of its inspiration from the worlds of Gqom and Dancehall.

“Bass Uppers” and “Abambo” make up the first part, where the references to Gqom are more evident, ending up being almost like two versions of the same song, where the same elements are articulated in different ways, taking into account the tempo over which they are built upon.

“Can’t Stop” and “Get Them!”, find themselves more inspired by the slow and warm rhythms of Dancehall, without ever leaving aside the sonic palette that structures the entire album, and which is also built around a somehow dark atmosphere, and where voice samples are predominantly used as rhythmic interjections.

The EP closes with a bombastic remix by Will Bowen, aka Pluralist. Picking up “Abambo”, he removes it from any kind of inhibitions and transforms it into a luminous bomb for the dance floor, completed with a section featuring triplet kicks. Maximum respect for this artist! Just hoping that Dun Dun’s release will be able to do you justice.
