BuzzJack Music Forum _ Dance _ Mall Grab thread
Posted by: Bré 8th May 2021, 12:04 AM
A discovery for me via BridgeCow in Unknown Pleasures back in 2019 (may be better known via Jeff also sending them to BJSC with his final entry to date last year, 'Yes I Need My Generator' w/ Turnstile), one of the most consistently high quality acts in electronic music for me so I figure he deserves a long overdue thread in here.
He's dropped 2 releases this year so far. First a 4 track EP 'Steel City Dance Discs Volume 20' from January:
and then more recently he dropped another single about a month ago, 'FMG' with Effy (another promising name who I first discovered from a song in Jade's personal chart a while back)
5 for 5 from 2021 releases for me so far, 'FMG' and 'Room Full Of Rothko' being my faves <3 (RFOR was technically dropped as a single in December 2020 but still x)

^ I said during the listenthrough that X CLUB. song sounded like Mall Grab so that cosign makes sense haha.
Forgot to post 'Love Reigns' in here at the time, not his best song imo but still another tune, need to check out the new one ~

New banger Metaphysical out now 
Posted by: JOTA 6th May 2022, 09:16 AM
new single out this week
Posted by: k👠th bby 6th May 2022, 10:39 AM
Production is amazing but the vocals are too jarring 
Posted by: Brer 6th June 2022, 02:59 AM
Didn't recognise the name at first but could tell straight away when I heard his vocals that Brendan is the singer from Turnstile - good to see them working on more stuff together after Mall Grab's previous remix EP as I have been getting more into Turnstile of late! (Though I'm not surprised that the vocals were a turnoff for r Kath oops)
I'm really liking this song as well anyway (and 'Metaphysical' was a banger too), Mall Grab's no-miss streak continues for me. The music video as well

Times Change with D Double E and Novelist is out now;
Posted by: k👠th 22nd June 2022, 04:47 AM
Not a fan of these collabs unfortunately
Posted by: Brer 23rd June 2022, 04:33 PM
He dropped another collab with Effy as well last month which wasn't posted yet so here it is, should probably be more to r Kath's taste x

New single Breathing is much more to my taste
Posted by: JOTA 11th August 2022, 07:25 AM

Breathing music vieo

I still need to give the album a listen in full but finding Patience surprisingly boring oops.
Posted by: Bumblebrë 12th September 2022, 10:15 PM
Did you ever listen to this album Kath? x
I did like 'Patience' but it is definitely the weakest of the singles for me - there are 3 album tracks that I am stanning in particular from this, 'Intercity Relations' is my fave (we stan a good 'yeah! woo!' sample x) and also really loving 'Without The Sun' and 'I Can Remember It So Vividly' <3 really solid album for me overall, there are a couple of less essential songs towards the end but have saved most of the album to my playlist ~

'Love is Real' by Loods & Mall Grab was released on 08/09
Posted by: k👠th 15th September 2022, 08:23 PM
I wasn't particularly excited to dive in having heard most of the songs already and those being a mixed bag. However, I'm liking quite a few of the new tracks:
Hand In Hand Through Wonderland (lush and vibey)
I Can Remember It So Vividly (trippy banger)
Intercity Relations (a nice little breakbeat jungle swerve here)
Distant Conversation (love the production layers and timbre on this)
And of course Metaphysical and Breathing were massive bangers from the singles.

Music video
So obsessed w this!

Following on from their debut collaboration with You; a highly anticipated and groundbreaking track that established a dynamic relationship between the two producers, Mall Grab and Flansie lock palms again with their second collaborative track, with No One Else Will, via Steel City Dance Discs.
No One Else Will is a track that sets this perfect marriage of sounds in motion; presenting the listener with a vibrant sound-garden that harmonises notes of an otherworldly, dreamlike euphoria. This otherworldly harmony is created by both producers through infusing an infectious melody of rising strings and synths, hissing hi-hats and echoing high notes which are delicately weaved above a bouncing, bedrock bassline. The result is a deeply ethereal soundscape; something that has been heavily characteristic of Mall Grab’s ever-evolving sound, and has only been heightened with the introduction of Flansie’s influence.
