Description
2024, 12″ EP, Mr. Banger.
New to Mr. Banger Records comes the latest four-tracker from Ukrainian producer Roma Khropko. Kicking the year off with a bang after a whopping four EPs released in 2023, ‘Time Frame’ slows down time at the critical moment of now, in which a breather is perhaps most needed. Khropko’s take on house and techno is organ-ic, hypnotic and sparse, preferring the interplay of different percussion, acid and FM synth parts. Terry F tribute ‘Roll To Life’ is the moment the EP finds its feet, drawing on thick gabber-esque kicks and muted pads-n-bloops, to counterpose the janky saws of ‘She’s Coming’ to follow. Closer ‘Rendal’ flaunts the breadth of Khropko’s palette with a chugging closing rabbit hole plunge.
