“Since the beginning, Alfie Granger-Howell and Nick Harriman have made a habit of bridging worlds. Their earliest work split the difference between lush progressive house and UK bass music, with hits like “Lost Highway” and “Flo Jam” leading the charge. Since then, they’ve weaved various sonic threads through their sound, from techno to electro to the breakbeat influence you can just detect on Love Taking Over, the first EP on their new label, 17 Steps, which is released next week.
In that time, Dusky have become one of the biggest club acts on the planet, with one of the busiest touring schedules out there. The duo’s RA podcast shows off their wide-ranging appeal, folding techno artists likes Slam, Truncate and Alex Smoke in with the heady broken beats of Benton and the usual deep house suspects. It’s obvious that Dusky have been growing as DJs—this set goes from an amble to a sprint without batting an eye. ”
