Once regarded as an up-and-comer to watch, it's fair to say that the past eighteen months have seen Dutch DJ/producer and live artist Locklead has established himself as one of the most in-demand artists emerging onto the global house stage. From his collaborative 'Across Boundaries' with close friend Chris Stussy to music via Dungeon Meat, Pilot, and Up The Stuss, the Utrecht-based talent has set his stall and is showing no signs of slowing. Adding to a first outing on sister label LOCUS two years ago, April welcomes a big debut appearance on FUSE as head honcho Enzo Siragusa invites him to the label for the first time to release his latest EP, 'Kemickal Affairs'.Opening the record, A1 'Zero's Delight' is a funk-fueled and spacey ride armed with resonant chords and swirling leads, while 'State of Peace' is a blissful ride through rich yet driving house spheres and showcases the second of two heavily requested anthems that have been go-to records for the likes of Stussy and Siragusa over recent months. The flip sees title cut 'Kemickal Affairs' open the b-side with authority, as bumping kicks and slinking grooves go to work beneath swirling synth lines and hazy tones, before wrapping things up with more modulated goodness and off-kilter vocal snippets on the chunky and trippy 'Morning Krew' - expect this to come out to play in those weird and wonky early-hours afterhours!Tracklisting:A1.
