UK up-and-comer Baylee Brown drops the ‘Omen’ EP on Lee Foss’ South of Saturn, exploring glitchy, rominimal-inspired soundscapes.
Baylee Brown hails from the coastal town of Grimsby but has made a global mark with his glitchy take on the Romanian minimal sound. His distinct style has led to releases on top labels including Roots Recordings, Issues, and Roush, all while earning support from key tastemakers such as Jamie Jones, Paco Osuna, and Marco Carola. Following the launch of his own newly minted label, OUT OF FOCUS, Brown now steps out on Lee Foss’ South of Saturn for the first time with ‘Omen’.
“The A-side to this EP has been in the back of my mind since I first started producing, growing up watching MTV. The Prodigy’s tracks have always stood out to me, and this was later made more true when Marco Carola dropped a track that sampled them at We Are Festival in 2023. Since then, I was just waiting for when I felt I could best do the sample justice, and with this being my most requested track I’ve made, I feel I’ve done just that.” – Baylee Brown.
The wonderfully warped ‘Omen’ features synthetic synths wrapped around a lithe and minimal groove. Glitchy electronics sound like a motherboard in meltdown with whirring FX, emo vocals, and rave sirens adding futuristic character. ‘DeepR’ follows with dubby, twitchy textures and twanging synth notes that make for a tactile groove. Throw in spoken words and plenty of production trickery, and you have a fresh and compelling minimal house sound.
We are presenting the title track, ‘Omen’.
‘Omen’ EP will be available after October 31st HERE.
