Kusp 'Getting By/Lustre' (Context Audio)

Burgeoning deep-end UK label Context hits release number five – and on this evidence, it’s in for a massive 2017. The only thing linking both sides of this release is precision engineering, because its sonic scope is jawdropping: ‘Getting By’ decorates some monstrous, glacial half-time detonations with low-slung, gold-toothed hip hop snippets in a devilishly wonky combo that’ll surely catch Alix Perez’s ear. The flip, meanwhile, plays it about as straight as it can get – a soft-focus liquid melter that’s gorgeously polished. Impressive, diverse fare from a producer and label to watch.

7/10
