From his humble beginnings in Dubstep’s cultural hub, Croydon based DJ
Hatcha has nurtured the genre from its outset. Standing as one of the
founding forefathers, he’s helped shaped the scene following its explosion in
the early 2000’s. His influence has spanned over a decade and this hasn’t
gone unnoticed throughout Dubstep’s history. Hatcha’s seminal Kiss and
Rinse FM shows pushed Dubstep onto the agenda’s forefront, cementing its
relevance within the UK’s melting hub of sub-culture, whilst further pushing it
onto the mainstage at events across the country. He’s personally
responsible for its resounding success, ensuring its longevity whilst
showcasing some of their finest producers.
And after eight years of pedestalling its most important breakthrough acts,
Hatcha returns with an EP set to send shockwaves across the community.
Being heralded by both Mixmag and DJ Mag alike as a leading pioneer, these
next five cuts of sonic aptitude epitomise why he’s so highly esteemed. The
spotlight is about to be turned on him once again and he’s leading the charge.
Diving head first into the murky, growling undertones Hatcha reigns
supreme over, the producer demonstrates exactly why he’s king of the
underground. Breaking out of every paradigm set up for electronic music,
Hatcha is unafraid to step out of its boundaries. Unclassifiable, yet floaty and
still technically flawless, first track ‘Going in’, which features the darkly
rooted production prowess of Abstrakt Sonance and is a re-entry into
Hatcha’s immersive style: minimal whilst still being able to take complete
control of your aural synapses.
Tribal, unforgiving and layered amongst crunchy drum textures, next track
‘Bawl Out’ is packed with industrial heat. It’s gloomy, eerily foreboding but
certainly set to rumble every sub in clubs across the country. An artist
who’s completely at one with his own musical personality, his ideas shine
through with every wave of sound pattern. This is especially prevalent during
track ‘I&I’, another subversive rocker that’ll hold you with its sophisticated
groove and waif like vocal sample. Setting a much difference tone, but still
instantly recognizable by his stylistic features, Hatcha commands a
technique like no other.
‘Blessed’ creates something more brooding, wavering between snapping
percussion and meandering beats. Mean spirited, yet still ambling from each
drum kick and creating a dystopian feel, Hatcha again conjures an
atmosphere difficult to separate yourself from. Abstrackt Sonance makes
another appearance on final piece ‘Breaking & Entering’, once again bringing
together two masterminds for a reckoning of 140bpm… The perfect way to
wrap up Hatcha’s most withstanding records to date.
Each track channels a history which shines through the entire EP’s growling
demeanor… heightened by a sense of antiquity and a producer’s genre
omnipresence. The return of dubstep is neigh, with Hatcha standing at the
helm just like before.
