Heavy hitters anonymous, welcome - Suray Sertin. Tell us why you’re here? Must be the banging tracks I just found on your Soundcloud page, like this one from 4 days ago.
Hailing from Montreal, someone emerging as a pretty dang good producer, he leans on club-oriented character kick drums, with a ukg garage style bounce on the hi-hats. Deep electronic bass drives his production deep into the feels of your belly, with fun little textural synths to eliminate monotony and help build up to the punchy and satisfying, yet never over-the-top drops.
Don’t have time for the whole set below? Hit the 16 minute mark for me and let me know what you think.
Another bass-focussed controller from Canada… I’m starting to feel like we kind of have that on lock? Where Suray summons followers to vibe to the underground eclectic housey, sometimes garage grooves, he exudes a more east coast sensibility and nuance, artistry, and finesse than some of the other bass-heavy hitters I’ve written about. Not to say one is better than the other. West Coast bass-house puts you inside the fun forest, more funkified with a dance floor energy, where as the concrete jungle of city style imposes a depth and sophistication that is more subtle and minimal, but packs a DEEP and heavy punch when you get proper into it.
Definitely someone to watch as an emerging talent, I’d be surprised if ticket prices don’t rise above the $17 that his next show in Montreal will cost. Si vous habite au Montréal, checkie him outie Nov 28th, at Newspeak.
