Azaad - Untitled 92 EP [Born 2 Be Free]

REPRESS ALERT!: Born 2 Be Free returns with a hot second vinyl record with a clear UKG flavor, and this time Azaad delivers a work with an excellent retro feel thanks to some well-thought-out sampling. "Untitled 92" makes clear the period this artist respects most, with silky chords and powerful kicks that immerse you in an enveloping deep vibe, before "Outta My Mind" hits with a bit more force, incorporating dry and scratchy hits, a bouncy bass, and cut-up vocal fragments.

The elegance continues with "Torn," which closes the EP with a faster, polished sound, smart snares, and a rich, emotional vocal that tops off the set with style. Three classy, timeless garage cuts.
