Josh Butler – Link EP

Respected house producer Josh Butler is back, armed with his brand new ‘Link’ EP on Edwin Oosterwal & Joris Voorn’s legendary Rejected imprint. This new venture of sound yet again proves Josh’s ability to continuously deliver the kind of high quality tech-house that has entrenched him as an integral figure in the underground UK house scene.

Kicking off the release, title track ‘Link’ stays true to Butler’s less-is-more philosophy while also showcasing his dab hand at sound-design and composition. The percussion takes centre stage as Josh brings in conga rolls, a soulful vocal refrain and lush, atmospheric pads to contribute to an inimitable groove.

Next up is ‘Need Me’, the EP’s deeper venture that combines minimalist instrumentation centred around a grooving bassline, subtly making itself known above the driving percussion.

Rounding it all off is the Dub version of ‘Link’, a far more bass-oriented exploration of the original version.  With the synths and pads stripped back, far more emphasis is placed on the percussion and feverish bongos giving the track a seriously potent tech vibe.

Tracklist:
1. Link (Original Mix)
2. Need Me (Original Mix)
3. Link (Dub Mix)
