Objekt - Chicken Garaage

New 2 tracks EP on his own label 

"Chicken Garaage, a solo 2-track EP by Objekt, explores the fertile terrain around 00s breakbeat and garage. The A-side, ‘Chicken Garaage’, is a playful but poignant ode to early dubstep, garage and Horsepower Productions. First sketched out on tour in Melbourne while eating takeaway chicken karaage, it’s the first outcome of an experiment with a new workflow to produce music with an accelerated approach and more immediacy and expressivity; encouragingly, it has the lowest final version number (55) of any Objekt track in recent memory. B-side ‘Worm Dance’ leans into Hertz’s headsier inclinations – constructed mostly from field recordings made at a lake house outside of Berlin in 2022, it channels mid-00s T++ into a moody, elastic breakbeat roller."

This is absolutely flawless.

Can’t seem to find a way to stream it on his BC ? I’ll most likely buy it but still ?

Yes and no way to share the bandcamp player ? pretty strange.

This is amazing as hell, already liking this more than the last ST release

Nice! Tune is rightfully held in high regard as one of the best tunes of the last ten years. This new stuff is great!

Yeah it's a excellent track imo

wildly good 

Love to see everyone enjoying the single, Objekt is always an instabuy to me. I know a lot of people think his albums are too clinical but I have good memories of listening to cocoon crush in the snow back in '18.

The singles are always something else though

Glad he is back in the game (and with a fresh new barnet.) His music is always produced to a comically obsessive quality level, it feels like a luxury product. The Objekt #EPs are all mindblowing, tho I would say he hasn't really translated that into his full length albums which I would describe as great but def a notch below the 12"s. Good luck with his new label.

New Objekt is always good news.

I'm not sure I would describe the full lengths as a notch below as much as just different. I'd also have to say if (any of) you ever get the chance to see him do a DJ set, take it, in Herr Hertz is one hell of a selector, too!

Love these tracks. Pretty mad tbh. Dude is back, and in full force.

dont be mad

When will this guy ever make something sub-amazing?

about 5-6 years ago

Here's an interview Mr Hertz did a few years back about his early days DJing in Oxford - https://cherwell.org/2018/03/15/from-cellar-to-worldwide-fame-an-interview-with-objekt/

I have sketchy memories of seeing him DJ in a bar in the early 2000s and not really knowing who he was at the time.  Proper varied selection it was!
