heRobust - Late Night / Morning After
heRobust is quickly shaping up to be one of the most interesting beat makers around. With high production values and, more importantly, a deep sick groove and a hectic musical mind, he seems to be nailing it with every single release lately.
Today he drops two(!) new albums on Saturate Records, and even though I’ve only just sampled them (they were out an hour ago I guess) I can full...
