- One of the more in form artists on the house scene has been Monkz, and theu have a chance to showcase their talents with this two disc Goggles EP on Nick K and Matthew Dekay’s Lowriders imprint.
The title track Goggles is up first and it gets the EP off to a very nice beginning with a nice melodic and uplifting production thanks to some great melodies and a nice subtle vocal hook. Monkz surprise us early by delivering a very tasty progressive cut here.
I Want To See The Sun again has a bit of a melodic feel to it with some very smooth melodic riffs that combine quite well with some smooth baselines and latino like guitar riffs. The flow is again quite smooth and uplifting creating yet another pretty peak time track.
Nasty kicks start disc two in a very nice housey way with a smooth baseline giving the track a very good flow. The production is quite eerie in parts as well thanks to some interesting sounds and effects that subtly ride the production.
This is Our Land closes the EP off with perhaps the chunkies track off the lot thanks to some solid beats and percussion as well as a chunky driving baseline. Some interesting ragga style vocals also help make this an interesting end to a pretty solid EP by Monkz.
