"Skylax Records is overjoyed to introduce the exceptionally talented Irish producer, Hammer, to its esteemed roster. This rising star, first brought to the forefront by the influential BICEP crew, has been making waves in the electronic music scene with numerous EPs released on renowned labels such as Optimo Music, Sulta Select, Shall Not Fade, and, of course, Feel My Bicep, among others. Hammer's distinctive style has gained him a dedicated following within the leftfield and Italo-disco communities, and his upcoming 12-inch release is poised to set dance floors ablaze. The EP kicks off with "Swerve," a track that effortlessly channels the pure essence of BICEP's iconic style. The rich, immersive soundscapes and dynamic composition capture the spirit of the duo's renowned productions, delivering a nod to the genre's roots while propelling it forward. Next up, we encounter "Swivel," a genuine Italo-disco gem. With its lush, retro-infused synths and irresistible basslines, this track pays homage to the Italo-disco era that continues to influence and inspire contemporary electronic music. "Swivel" is a sonic time capsule, transporting listeners to the heyday of this beloved genre. Flipping over to the B-side, we have the outstanding "Tbilisi," a probable tribute to the vibrant and ever-evolving electronic music scene in the bustling city of Tbilisi, Georgia. Hammer masterfully crafts a sonic narrative that captures the essence of the scene, incorporating elements of techno, house, and the avant-garde. This track is a testament to Hammer's versatility and ability to seamlessly navigate different musical landscapes. The EP reaches its conclusion with "Push Repeat" takes center stage. This electrifying track promises to be a sensation on the most discerning dance floors, with its driving beats, infectious melodies, and undeniable energy. Hammer's mastery of groove and rhythm is on full display in this opening number, setting the tone for what's to come. In sum, Hammer's upcoming release on Skylax Records is nothing short of a masterstroke. It not only solidifies his position as a standout talent in the electronic music realm but also highlights Skylax's commitment to delivering innovative and genre-defying sounds to discerning listeners. This EP is poised to become an essential addition to the collections of music aficionados and a testament to the ever-evolving and boundary-pushing nature of the contemporary electronic music landscape. Get ready to embark on a sonic journey through the mind of Hammer, and experience the future of dance music."
"It’s been a wee while since we last heard from Rory Hamilton AKA Hammer, whose formative releases on Bicep’s Feel My Bicep label were special to say the least. This is, we think, the Northern Irish producer’s first solo EP for almost five years. He starts in style with ‘Swerve’, a pulsating slab of house-powered body music rich in sequenced bass, shimmering chords and saucer-eyed melodies, before opting for a deeper, tech-tinged and analogue-rich Italo-disco-goes-deep-house sound on ‘Swivel’. Over on side B, ‘Tbilisi’ is a hushed, warehouse-ready affair full of sweat-soaked cymbals, restless square wave bass and vocal stabs, while ‘Push Repeat’ sees him pepper another sturdy house beat with melodic motifs and quietly moody pads."
