Young Smoke - Space Zone

now planet mu highlight the work of one of the footwork scene's youngest and most promising producers at just 18, young smoke aka chicagoan david davis has carved out an idiosyncratic and very listenable niche within footwork. producing from a young age and coming with an intentional conceptual angle, the music on 'space zone' carries all the hallmarks and framework of classic footwork - heavy bass and 160bpm rhythms - but with a lightness of touch and the conceptual abstraction of space themes.
