Releasing on Rekids Special Projects in August ‘24, Procombo’s ‘Nothing’ EP is a robust, groove-laden set of club tracks built for the peak time. The RX Istanbul boss starts with the title track, ‘Nothing’, which features swinging organic rhythms, chugging chords, and gospel vocals. It sets the tone perfectly for the rest of the EP, with the tongue-in-cheek ‘Keep Your Pants On’ boasting some impressive techno stab work while a distant voice repeats the track name.
Procombo’s aptly named ‘Sequences’ then utilises exactly that to masterful effect. Mind-warping synth soundscapes accompany punchy drums while rides slice and whirl above before ‘Mumbles’ continues with chopped-up vocal samples and a more stripped-back techno feel. Closing out this workout, ‘Freakin’’ has a pulsing bass, rattling percussion and another irresistible vocal that drives the track in true jackin’ style.
Having first worked with Matt Edwards’ RSPX in 2021, Procombo has since released a steady supply of funk-fuelled techno records via the Rekids offshoot, each regularly supported by the likes of Luke Slater, Truncate, Richie Hawtin, DJ Bone, Pan-Pot, Pangaea, Elisa Bee, and many more.
