Distal burning up the decks at Royal - El Bar - Atlanta - 09.08.2010

Big things coming from the ATL homie, heres a little blurb taken from Reprise Publishing’s website:

Atlanta based producer, and part-owner of Embassy Recordings Distal has found himself rapidly building an internationally familiar brand in 2010. Combining time travel with dance music Distal breaks down the more ambiguous sounds from the past and fuses them with thoughts and equations of the future.

Because of this non-traditional approach to Dubstep, Funky and Techno, Distal has been forced to take a few risks, but along the way has created a very specific and friendly sound for himself. Bridging the gap between techno, breakbeat hardcore, house, funk, gangster rap, and even pop culture, is a tricky formula to entertain. This enthusiasm has already gained the attention of many well-respected shamans and pioneers working in Dubstep and Techno today. Most recently his first two releases under Embassy have graced the track listings of Appleblim, 2562, Joe Nice, Moldy, Ramadanman, BenUFO, Julio Bashmore, Breakage, and Moldy. The list of recognition is set to grow in  2010 with ‘Grape Donut’ being selected for the forthcoming Soul Jazz compilation, ‘Future Bass’.

“Attempt at Yellow” from Distal starts off with lust synths, and syncopate cymbals, with the only hint of what’s to come from the kick drum. The drop into the first section is earth shattering. The cymbals and vocal samples stay for the duration, and the synths come back in during the breakdown. Later on there’s some more sparse bits but it always comes back to that gigantic bassline. Declared a mandatory rewind by Joe Nice, this one will rock any dancefloor. “– Big Up Magazine
