A member of the Colorado underground scene for over a decade, Ross Kiser has built an amazing solo career after stepping away from DJ partnership, Need & Necessity. His trademark polyrhythmic manipulations have frequently seen his tracks in the Beatport top 10, leading to releases with Pitch, Relikt Audio, and UNCANNY.

First up, ‘Hidden Jungle’ starts with dubby melodics and a catchy beat. Gelatinous bass rounds out the lows and gets those hips moving. Mid way, a series of synths keeps interest piquing while the groove remains front and center.

Next, ‘Daydreams’ gets a bit wonkier. Nodding towards the classic Chi-Town deep house sound, melodics work harmoniously with percussion to get this swinging along. Weirdness hits in the break with some cool 8-bit keys. On the remix, Gareth Cole adds some UK house chunk on a spacey, dub version.

‘Rotate’ chimes in next with scattergun hats and subtle jazzy snares. Groovy and sublimely cool, this is the sound of rooftop parties in sunny Denver frequented by shiny, happy people. Thoroughly modern, with a hefty dose of Larry Heard and Carl Craig. Glorious!

Closing out the EP strongly, ‘Untold Tale’ powers from the blocks. Tough drums and icy stabs open out into trippy arps and groovy percussion for an upbeat, main room vibe.

You can now listen to the full premiere of Gareth Cole’s ‘Daydreams’ remix, exclusively on When We Dip. Enjoy!
