Will Saul's move to the rolling Somerset countryside means he's closer to Bristol, a city whose music has increasingly informed Aus's direction of late. Keiren "Komon" Lomax, an Appleblim cohort and Bristol denizen, first appeared on the label with a couple of remixes four years ago. He marks his full debut with two bass-leaning house cuts, but, as befits a producer who cut his teeth on drum & bass, it's not typical fare.
In the case of "Walk The Walk," that means marrying a steady kick and reedy synths to a rubbery bassline, and filling the spaces in between with intricate, textural flourishes. Its languid bounce gives it an old-school electro feel. "Poly Sum" rides in on shimmering arps before it flowers into an intriguing mix of wobbly UK garage bass, finger clicks and subtle bursts of nu disco-style synths.
