Artist Spotlight: What So Not


What So Not | Buy ‘The Quack’

What So Not have finally released their new ‘Quack EP’ via Skrillex’s OWSLA label. The duo (comprised of Sydney natives Flume and Emoh Instead) are no strangers to the electronic playground. Flume is currently blowing up in both his home country and America with his eponymous debut album, and Emoh is constantly remixing big names and gaining traction in his own right. With this release, the duo have created a bass heavy EP of ‘club dubs’.

The A-side “The Quack” is a thunderous trap banger that’s sure to get everybody bouncing, yet it retains that signature strange What So Not sound of 808s and peculiar synths. The B-side “High You Are” is a song that the two described as an experiment of pushing groove based house to the limit. “We wanted something that could hold its own, against the biggest ‘EDM’ hit, without compromising the feel & soul. The power to make people move, not just fist pump.” It’s definitely safe to say they succeeded and boy is it refreshing.
