New on Kyle Hall’s Forget The Clock imprint; the young Detroit house wiz rolls out five moody tracks which parallel the oft-understood beauty of the titular sea creature. KMFH dives straight into some 10,000 leagues deepness with the A1 title track, deploying his signature lush pads, vocal flourishes and percussive drum style to sublime effect; A2 cut “Vexed” switches into predatory mode. On the flip, “Distant” shines with the brilliance of the bluest ocean while “Slam Deep” and “Channel & Transmission” get down on some classic Detroit beatdown dissonance, the latter being a hidden vinyl-only bonus track. Super limited stock, don’t fall prey to the sharks! Recommended.
