about

The Bug aka Kevin Richard Martin launches his brand new LADYBUG single series on his own PRESSURE imprint with this seductive opener, his latest collaboration with Berlin-based producer and performer Dis Fig (aka Felicia Chen).

Replacing the "tunnel sound" of their 2020 In Blue collaborative album with the hallucinatory heat haze of ‘Vanishing’, Martin and Chen return with a study in emotional desolation, set adrift on a deeper-than-thou low-end theory. Yet perversely, it results in the most alluring transmission yet from this pair of musical nomads. Musically gorgeous, emotionally devastating.

Unexpectedly, the EP conjures the widescreen expansiveness of the devastated Harry Dean Stanton wandering the sun-baked desert of Paris, Texas. But instead of Ry Cooder’s Paris, Texas score and its Blind Lemon Jefferson blues inflections, it's the super-heavyweight beat, bass and ambient drone of The Bug's desolation dub that soundtracks Dis Fig's tale of post-break-up trauma. The swoonsome sonic humidity recalls an evolved King Midas Sound, reimagined for a lovesick Gen Z. A modern lover's rock for 50,000-watt sound system worshippers.

The 'Numb Mix' is no less compelling, just a hundred fathoms deeper. An irresistible slow-motion narcosis, landing heavily and beautifully. Imagine a fictitious fusion of prime Massive Attack and classic Basic Channel, yet one that remains unmistakably Bug-like. This stripped-down mix will nonchalantly level clubs or transfix hometrippers alike with its zonal, sub-heavy momentum and bewitchingly levitational atmospherics.

For the headz, the accompanying versions and dubs once again reflect Martin's well-documented love of Scientist's classic productions, while further amplifying his insatiable bass addiction. The sound-lab psychedelia rivals the dubbed-out delirium of On-U Sound at its most exploratory.
