Bump In The Hump Sneak Peek: plusol - Hailstorm

plusol shouldn't be a name you're unfamiliar with at this point. I've played his tracks in a handful of episodes and showcased his incredible catalog in the January edition FUXWITHIT's Focus Five feature here. Working in a unique sphere of sound, Calvin Jung combines crunchy chiptune samples with all sorts of organic instrumentation, primarily the piano, but often a larger, almost orchestral swath.

Last year, he captured the attention of Anthony Fantano with "Entity" and recently reignited a nostalgia for Zedd's "Clarity" that I didn't know I had. This past Friday he released "Hailstorm," what I've learned is the first taste of forthcoming album Lineage. Labelled as #hallucinations, this new production showcases a dizzying array of colours through the oppositional play of the twinkling piano and glitchy, raucous electro crashes. An excellent example of plusol's combination of power and poise, "Hailstorm" ought to instantly whet the appetite for Lineage. Stream it now below and catch it in the mix on an all new episode of Bump In The Hump live tonight from 7-9 PM EDT or afterwards on Mixcloud here.FOLLOW PLUSOL: FACEBOOK SOUNDCLOUD TWITTER
