Waff makes a triumphant return to Hot Creations after a seven-year hiatus with his three-track, groove-driven 'Slapfunk EP'.Since his first outing back in 2012, Waff has been an integral part of the Hot Creations family, remixing various releases and dropping a total of four EPs - the last being 'Sick Pleasure' in 2016, which still stands today as a highlight in the label's extensive catalogue. Marking a long-awaited return to Jamie Jones and Lee Foss' beloved imprint after seven years, with material via renowned labels such as Solid Grooves, Cocoon, Desolat and his very own NATURE imprint over that period further establishing him as a leading name, he arrives fresh from his third Paradise show of the season ready to ignite dancefloors with a trio of irresistible beats on 'Slapfunk'. Title track 'Slapfunk' opens the release with shifting stabs, warping bass patterns and fizzing lead synths, steadily progressing into a menacing club-focused workout. Continuing his signature style, 'Questions' showcases a blend of pulsating beats synchronised with a warped vocal top line that enhances the allure. Finally, 'Next Game' delivers a punchy trip loaded with subtle minimal-leaning influences, combining chopped vocal snippets with slick, stripped-back percussion.Tracklisting:
