"One of the UK’s finest and most enlightened digital labels" - Loudat

"Always a haven for upcoming talent, Slime Recordings continue to generate heat" - Juno Download

Slime heads down under once again to welcome to the label UK producer Akin. Currently residing in Australia, his deep melodic style fits right into his surrogate homeland's musical renaissance - we're not sure what's in the water over there - but whatever it is we'd like some, as there seems to be some incredibly talented new producers emerging right now from its shores. Akin is no exception to this, with a way with a melody that will have you in the palm of his hand.

'Jaded' drifts in on a subtle garage groove, with delicious female vocals echoing through the mix and light melodic touches spreading ito the rhythm with beguiling ease. A perfect soundtrack for rain-soaked autumnal nights.

'Longing' switches gears with a foray into liquid D&B styles, melancholy chords riding high in the mix with glittering piano keys and FX amongst a strong vocal sample that fits the track perfectly.

'You Don't Know' flips back to a strung-out 2-step style, with plaintive violins drenched over honeyed female vocals and skittering percussion that washes over you like a warm summer breeze.

"One of the most impressive debuts we’ve heard this year" - doesn't get much better than that!

Big ups to Robot Bodypop for reviewing the forthcoming release on Slime Recordings by Akin - http://robotbodypop.com/2012/09/23/akin ... ecordings/

Fresh off the plate from the brilliant Slime Recordings, this debut from Sydney producer Akin comes as a mixed bag of Garage, Drum & Bass and Dubstep. With a melancholic vibe supported by a firm groove, the air tight production immediately made our ears prick. In we go. ‘Jaded’ commences with unearthly chords giving way to springing 2-step beats backed by a stirring vocal. Garage will never die with producers like Akin keeping it alive. The high benchmark is adhered to on the mournful liquid Drum and Bass track ‘Longing’, with tight drums and melancholy piano phrases. Ending on the deep Dubstep vibes of ‘You Don’t Know’ we are treated to a stunning example of the production we can expect from future releases. One of the most impressive debuts we’ve heard this year.

Out today! Supported by Immersed Audio, Robot Bodypop, UK Bass Music and many more!
