The chemistry between the artists throughout Rush Hour is undeniable. Their friendship exudes into the seamlessness of each track as Black Carl! and Saka explore a few different styles across the project. The opener, ‘Heaven On Earth,’ which features angelic vocals from The Lie Within Callie, is a groovy, house-leaning bop showcasing a new facet to both producers. ‘Rush Hour’ follows with the artists taking a much more familiar approach as they deliver a grungy halftime brute that boasts just the right amount of aggression without being overbearing. The biggest surprise in Rush Hour comes in the form of ‘Brutal’ – an unexpected yet mesmerizing collaboration with Protial. Perhaps it isn’t that unexpected, as the mysterious artist joined Black Carl! and Saka for bits of their Rush Hour tour. Nonetheless, the joining of forces of the three artists is exactly what one would expect, and more. From the quintessential Protial introduction to the flawless combination of sounds from those involed, ‘Brutal’ stands out as a personal favourite from the project. Finally, ‘Red Dragon’ closes out the ensemble of tracks with a more laidback appeal without escaping the bass nature of the project.

Speaking of the journey, Black Carl! said, “When Eric [Saka] and I first met, we joked that we should make a song called ‘Rush Hour.’ Three years later we got to play the biggest tour of our careers, we’re putting out the Rush Hour EP on Deadbeats, and Zeds Dead played our title track at Red Rocks. It’s hard to believe, but we’re so thankful for the support of our fans, friends, and family who got us to this point.” Don’t miss the Rush Hour EP below.

Bass music is an extremely broad umbrella that encapsulates a wide array of genres, but trying to pigeonhole both Player Dave and Black Carl! into something more specific is a insult to their versatility. Both artists have individually explored a vast expanse of styles throughout their years in the scene, executing these styles at an elite level every time. Now, the two producers have joined forces to deliver the Fallen Petal EP, a two-track excursion through sound that further exemplifies this statement of originality.

Despite being their first body of work together, the chemistry between Player Dave and Black Carl! is undeniable. The first piece of the puzzle titled ‘Petal’ is an ominous 140 BPM cut that remains minimal throughout, but never sounds weak or soft. The sounds are meticulously arranged to lure listeners in with its hypnotizing aura, without ever escaping the ruggedness that a dubstep track should carry. The second piece, ‘Fallen,’ is completely different in style than the first track, as Player Dave and Black Carl! dive into liquid drum and bass. Equally lush and pleasant as it is gritty, ‘Fallen’ offers an appealing intensity with a carefully crafted balance of highs and lows.
