Don Kapot blew our minds last year with I Love Tempo, an intoxicating opus of an album that made it to our Album Picks of the Year. We’re excited to know that Giotis Damianidis (bass), Viktor Perdieus (baritone saxophone) and Jakob Warmenbol (drums), who make up the Brussels trio, are rolling out new music this Friday, in the form of an EP titled Remedy. Featuring three tracks, Remedy “showcase[s] Don Kapot’s love of using a wide range of instruments including bass, drums and tenor saxophone, evolving their sound into a solid complex rhythmic wave against a Death Grips-style hip-hop backdrop and demented samples”. The upcoming EP is also the first in a series of three EPs they will be releasing over the coming months.
For a taste of what’s on offer, listen to the entrancing and galvanizing opening track ‘Bascule’, and nab the EP when it drops on November 15th through W.E.R.F. Records.
