New single from Cardiff-born & London based producer Elkka (Emma Kirby)- taken from Euphoric Melodies her new EP due on 21st May on Ninja Tune.

I wasn't massively blown away by this on first listen but hearing it in the sunshine today really made me appreciate it a whole lot more, think and hope this is gonna soundtrack the early part of my summer. Potentially a massive tune!

Her EP is out now! At 27 minutes you could almost call it an album!

It grew from a 7/10 to a 9/10 for me over several listens. Really solid, cohesive piece of work. I'm really impressed! Hard to pick a fave but if I had to it would be between the title track and Morning Fuzz but it's all so good. Top shelf house music wub.gif

Banging new single called DJ Friendly which premiered on the Mary Anne Hobbs show on 6Music funky.gif



QUOTE
Cardiff-born DJ and producer Elkka today announces her forthcoming EP DJ Friendly, due for release on October 27 via Ninja Tune. Alongside the announcement, Elkka premiered the high-octane EP title track on Mary Anne Hobbs show on BBC 6Music this morning, which has already been making waves across the festival circuit with support from the likes of Young Marco, Surusinghe, Jaguar and many more. To celebrate the release, Elkka will be shelling down a headline DJ set at Brixton’s Phonox on EP release day. Fans will also be able to get their hands on a dubplate version of the EP - pre-order one of the limited, 300 hand-stamped white label vinyl.

Launching off the back of a packed out summer of touring including Glastonbury, Secret Garden Party and Junction 2 festival, DJ Friendly sees Elkka sharpen her club tools with a collection of energetic dancefloor cuts primed for use within her own DJ sets. In contrast to the melodic technicolour of her live show, this EP is maximalist on tempo, percussion and rave euphoria. Speaking on the body of work, Elkka explains: “DJ Friendly is the expression of the urges and intensity that the club space gives to me. I feel like I tend to walk a tightrope between the club and more live-facing music. This one is firmly on the club side. Sometimes I need to release that side of me, inspired by the parties I have played at and partied in over the summer. It builds and builds until the urges are met and I can refresh and allow myself to start again creatively. I've been playing the tracks in my sets all summer and the crowd reactions have been giving me so much energy, so I hope it translates at home.”
