Vilnius-based record label Good Skills resurface with the tightly coiled missile ‘I Know Where You Live‘, the debut EP from long-standing Lithuanian production duo THE NGHBR$.
Forged over a decade of subterranean sessions in semi sound-proofed bunkers scattered across Vilnius, THE NGHBR$ have taken their time. Across four tracks, the duo churn out a paranoid ride through razor-wired electro, glitch-splintered breaks and scorched circuitry funk, narrating the coded language of comradeship and digital distrust.
The standout is ‘Get Down’, a dysto-funk detonation set at 135 BPM, ducking between blown-out kicks and bleeps. This is a mutant electro transmission with all its wires exposed. Synth arpeggios stutter like corrupted transmissions, while low-end pressure sweeps through like a data breach. If there’s an alien dancefloor transmitting from an encrypted satellite, ‘Get Down‘ might be the soundtrack.
‘I Know Where You Live’ was scheduled for release 19 June via Good Skills Records. Order a copy from Bandcamp.
