VLEK 012EP
|
Hailing from the Belgian capital of Brussels, Squeaky Lobster is known to his mother as Laurent and used to play bass in rock and jazz bands. Nowadays, however, you're more likely to find him pushing buttons on stage ensuring the system in turn pumps out his heady concoctions of chest-pummeling bass and skittering beats. Squeaky Lobster keeps things close to home on Belgian label, Vlek Records, also based in Brussels.

VLEK 004EP
|
The highly anticipated Squeaky Lobster EP has been worth every second of the wait. In terms of sample/synth selection, song structure and sound quality, no expense has been spared. Hi-fi synthetic drums intertwine with lo-fi sampled kicks & snares while heavy, stretched-out synth bass lines are topped with Bollywood-esque string samples, '80s guitar bridges & plenty of other orchestral mayhem. The incredible feat here is that no 8 bars are quite the same as the next. Housed in an awesome spot-varnished cover -- definitely one to hang up on the wall.
