ZULI’s new offering Trigger Finger is a game of shadowy atmospheres and unquiet spirits. It functions as a spacial and temporal compactor, using sampling and field recordings to reconstruct reality’s dissonance, while at the same time reverse its own introspective character into bass weight and outworked tension. A kind of extremization of ZULI’s own roots as a beatmaker for the Cairo rap scene, tinged with the clandestine and delirious urbanism of grime and jungle, and fronted by the necessity to face its own dark side. But the dark and crusty sonic palette does not limit the possibility for the tracks to display various layers of emotional content.

All the tracks are great but Stepper is the standout for me! pounding syncopated kicks, rolling handdrums and playful sample work, dancefloor destroyer. Jack G.

I didn't realise breakbeats and ambient techno could go so well together, but Skee Mask achieves awesome stuff on this record. humongouslomghonogoufungus
