Noer the Boy’s “No Name Dub” is a crooked, off-kilter cut built around a behemoth beat, weighty bass and forceful percussion. Its roomy vocal-shaped space gives DJs plenty to work with: the track invites an acapella, then lets the beat take over again.
It’s one of the more playful turns on Off Leash, the Portland producer’s first EP for Deep Dark & Dangerous, balancing the label’s system-heavy pressure with a distinctly askew groove.
