Kahn - Illy / Tehran

Punch Drunk Records

Regular price

Added to your cart!

Much needed repress of this 2011 essential!

Pure Bristol bass pressure, the second release by Kahn on Peverelist's Punch Drunk imprint.

First off, we have 'Illy' which, coming from a Bristol, turn-of-the-decade point of view, sounds spot on somewhere in between that shuffling 2-step rhythm that were a staple to Kahn's productions at the time, coupled with the bright 'purple wow' sound that the likes of Gemmy, Joker and Guido were engaging with... It's a brilliant mix of melody, rhythm and low-end.

'Tehran' is centred around a revolving vocal stab, judging by the track name quite possibly of Iranian descent, swirling around a heavily-loaded 808 sub and claps that push forward in a dancehall structure and hit hard in a reduced and raw way... Play it loud.

A great 12" from back then, and it still hits real hard!
If you don't own it yet, it's very certainly worth adding to your collection.
