South-African producer Kyle Watson debuts on DFTD with ‘The Afterhours’, a sample-led club heater dripping in personality. The acclaimed producer’s work has received acclaim from the likes of Diplo, Gorgon City, and Chris Lake, leading to his rapidly growing popularity in the UK and further afield. With releases on Insomniac, Toolroom and Ultra leading to sold-out shows all over the world, Kyle Watson’s presence as a key name in electronic music is undeniable, and now his warehouse-filling sound arrives on DFTD. Throughout ‘The Afterhours’, the spoken-word sections introduce organ synths on cue, adding heaps of personality before his signature bass-heavy sound sweeps in from underneath.
