Sleepyhead "Hi-Five"

Words: Nathan Albert
Label: Trouble and Bass

Brooklyn's Trouble and Bass label brings us a new purveyor of vertigo-inducing bass, a young artist who goes by the name Sleepyhead. "Hi-Five," the third track from his upcoming EP, Motions (artwork above), combines off-kilter percussion, gliding synths, and post-rave vocal samples. The Brooklyn-via-SF producer is gearing up for a big 2012, planning a release on Distal's burgeoning Embassy imprint as well. The Motions EP drops on January 31, but you can check out an exclusive advance stream of its four songs after the jump.
