DJ Crisps – No Dirty Money EP

Hailing from Rotterdam, DJ Crisps returns to Time Is Now with another hot and heavy four tracker, teasing experimental genre play on the newest addition to his fast-growing discography.

This exciting collection of modern garage reinventions is not to be missed.

No Dirty Money EP showcases DJ Crisps’ clever production style, a mix of drama and fun; ‘Don’t Need No Dirty Money’ kicks the record off with staccato minimalist percs that have a metallic edge, effervescent vocal samples contrasting the momentous sub bass.

‘Dynamic Reflections’ creates an icier soundscape, juxtaposed arpeggios echoing each other across a calm, deep bassline and cavernous pads – gentle, but still alive and kicking.

Lazy sax and ghostly pads open the expansive B side; ‘Release the Pain’ then flips the energy with a Niche style bassline and cheeky garage synths.

The jazz samples remain to create a real fusion sound. To end, ‘Sweet Melodies’ pairs dirty garage with funk n soul, chopped up vocals and a classic James Brown sample making this high energy track even more vibrant – a joyous end to the EP.
