FEATURE ALBUM

Roland Tings – Roland Tings
[Internasjonal]

Mixmag Germany made the record Album of the Month this month and music and culture websiteXLR8R gave it a modest8/10 rating. With shiny high-hats that eclispe your heartbeat just 20 seconds in, Roland Tings is not only progressivelyapt at referencing his influences, thealoofness in his simplistic refrain is just part of his charm. The Melbourne producer's latest release deserves every inch of the kudos it's receiving.
