Kyle Hall

Kaychunk / You Know What I feel

Order now!

After his remix of Darkstar’s ‘Aidy’s Girl Is A Computer’ at the end of last year, Hyperdub were quick to request an EP from Kyle Hall, and these two fantastic tracks are the outcome. Just 18 years old and hailing from Detroit, Kyle Hall has been getting a lot of attention after releasing several EPs on his own Wild Oats label, plus a one-sided single for Omar S’ FHXE imprint. However, this is his first full release for another label. Both tracks inhabit an interzone between live and mechanical music, full of details and fills that lend a playful, hands-on feel. ‘Kaychunk’ wraps lush arpeggios and classic warm Detroit strings around shuffling syncopated drums into an upbeat track that’s almost a mirror image of uk funky. ‘You Know What I Feel’ combines 2-step kicks that sound like rain hitting wood, with great clouds of bittersweet chords, a see-sawing bassline, and a rich swooning melody that echoes Stevie Wonder’s classic ‘70s synth-drenched soul.
