The next chapter to ZEKE BEATS’ journey comes in the form of the Vigil EP, a four-track brute released via Liquid Stranger’s Wakaan. About the project, the creative states “During dark times throughout our lives, we must remain resilient and vigilant for what is important… The ‘Vigil’ EP will take you on a journey from tongue-in-cheek to complete chaos & destruction.” Cryptic yet chaotic, the collection of tracks is undeniably entertaining, and today we have the extreme pleasure of premiering the wildly enthralling ‘Cheeky.’

When you hear it, you’ll immediately understand why the track is called ‘Cheeky.’ Opening with a minimal, eerie soundscape that slowly raises the hairs on the back of your neck, the track then switches into a groovy bass drop that carries a futuristic swagger to it. ZEKE BEATS balances a wicked bassline, lively synths, and meticulous effects to lure listeners in with a hypnotic aura. As the 1:47 mark hits, the track takes a one-eighty-degree turn into a mind-melting scratching section that is genuinely fascinating. ZEKE BEATS keeps things fun, both for himself and for fans, by including a totally unexpected bit of DJ mastery, and it’s this type of energy that has allowed the artist to keep growing in this industry.

If you love ‘Cheeky,’ the Vigil EP and/or ZEKE BEATS in general, be sure to catch him on his tour across North America.

While the trio arrangement has afforded Glitch Mob the opportunity to work primarily unaccompanied in their studio efforts, more recently the troupe has slowly rescinded their solidarity, giving rise to a new outpouring of collaborative efforts including ‘System Bleed’ with fellow LA producer LICK and the latest with Australian turntable sensation ZEKE BEATS.

‘Lazer Vision’ listens with the depth and impact of a well-oiled audible plot. A diffused digital melody is utilized to create an immediate sense of endearment in the introduction, which coupled with an expedient pace of percussion, builds heightened anticipation before ZEKE BEATS unleashes a surge of boundless freeform energy to round out this collaborative masterpiece.

A talented mixmaster with an affinity for scratching out sensational treatments in the studio and live arena, Bad Robot further divulges Zeke’s robust analog flavor as depicted throughout his career, smoothing out the experimental edges of the style and settling further into the enigmatic fabric of nonconformity.

The project comprises two solo expeditions, ‘Mammoth’ and ‘Fire Tonight’, which vividly portray an intergalactic exploration of the darkest caverns of freeform sound, combining fibrous sequences of mesmerizing synths with tightly-wound, ornately lain percussion. The third prong of this experimental weaponry takes the shape of a collaboration birthed on the homefront, as Zeke and fellow Aussie AVANCE combine efforts for the title track of the EP, ‘Bad Robot’.

Each sequence within the EP flows endlessly as one majestic strand of freeform delicacy, providing not a single moment of reprise, Bad Robot is an exemplification of the proficiency and creative genius of ZEKE BEATS.

An inexplicably energetic snare roll hunts fervently in the backdrop of the introduction as a languid echo of the unmistakable vocal fragment lingers eerily. An expertly placed vocal pitch quickly brings the vocals within earshot as an otherworldly laser-like pulsing catapult the track into an unrelenting sequence of resonating freeform madness peppered expertly with intergalactic fills.

ZEKE BEATS refuses to disappoint, ensuring the trajectory of ‘Babatunde’ will only continue to rise as his invigorating analog treatment of the track finally sees the light of day. Check out the tune below, and don’t forget to grab a copy of the free download here.

First up is Zeke Beats trip to the ‘Next World’. A futuristic take that still embodies a moving energy with an underlying ancient influence. Gladiator’s take on ‘Hollow’ is another can’t miss. The track bounces between club and trap, perfectly utilizing elements of the original but injecting a more fun-filled aesthetic. If you’re looking for something heavy, it should come as no surprise that Rickyxsan’s ‘PCP’ is your prescription. The original is intensely raw and this rework doesn’t lose any of OG’s energy. Rugged sound design and devastating bass make this a certified slapper. Rounding out my list of favourites is Blush’s ‘Monarch’ remix. While it opens with regal and exotic motif, it morphs into a futuristic mind-bender. Blush was the only remixer who’s name I didn’t recognize going into this, but he’s definitely one I soon won’t be forgetting. The project also features heavy hitters like Vincent, X&G, Hex Cougar, StéLouse & more. Stream them all below.
