big day energy 🛞💛 “Final Drive” EP is out everywhere now — the newest split in our Kindergarten series 🪢
what started as years of mutual admiration 🪞, traded dubs 📡 and ideas moving back and forth across time zones 🌎🌍 eventually led and to meet in a london studio 🏘, where the first sketches for this record came together. from there, their contrasting approaches locked in 🔏 immediately — Sobolik’s haphazard flair 🎆 meeting georg-i’s frenetic precision 🥽 — and the tracks evolved over months of exchange into a focused set of high-pressure club tools.
the collaborative cuts move with force 🧱: “Forced Induction” pairs insistent, rhythmic synths with big, stompy bass and drums 🥁 while buried vocal chops and secondary melodies worm their way around the soundscape 🪲
“Overtorqued” starts in glassier space, building in intensity 🏗️ around distorted horn sounds before slamming home a huge morphing bassline, stalagmite stabs and a pummelling beat 🌋 — a full throttle dancefloor moment
on the solo sides 🤺 ‘Surface Tension’ leans into a trancy sound palette and a nervous, staccato energy, with filters 🚿 rolling over the mix in a satisfying dance 🫧 Sobolik’s ‘Short Shift’ is a big bompty stepper with a blown-out 🌬️ and somehow jaunty bassline, chimes and bells ringing around an illegible robotic 🤖 vocal sample like a corrupted answer machine message and a recurring swelling of bright light that threatens to swallow up the track 🔔
