Usually it’s enough to share single sound from a new E.P, however KRL‘s forthcoming debut full four piece in December deserves a double.

Signed to Southern Fried Records, Stoke born, Sheffield bred, London based Firas gave a shout after his track Go Right was featured on PP11. Gladly accepting a mix proposal after hearing many more pleasing productions, which feature slow burners and deep delights. There’s no track listing in a bid to encourage crate digging and incite intrigue. Contagious compilation containing dreamy disco, hitting house and grooving garage.
