Link Up

Hyas, the rising French producer and Rinse France resident, makes his exhilarating debut on EC2A with the EP "Link Up," featuring the infectious tracks “Mit Rauch” and “Modigliani.” The first track, “Mit Rauch,” sets the stage with its whipping percussion and vibrant organ layers, creating a lively backdrop for rapper Vitus04. He leaps into action, delivering breathless flows that vault over the beats like a lyrical Olympian, leaving listeners eager for more.

As we transition to “Modigliani,” we’re greeted by Kaba, a co-founder of the H3 Records label and a key member of the Squadra collective. With a nonchalant vibe, Kaba spins tales of daily life and dreams, blending his eclectic musical influences seamlessly into his rap.

Hyas crafts a sound that mixes UK Garage with techno, dubstep, footwork, and breaks, all while playfully pushing genre boundaries. With support from heavyweights like Bicep, Skream, and The Blessed Madonna, Hyas is undeniably a rising star in the electronic music scene.

As EC2A celebrates its five-year anniversary, "Link Up" not only showcases Hyas' artistry but also captures the spirit of underground dance culture—definitely an artist to watch!
