King Ashabanapal

Smoky, surrealist downtempo that feels like a noir film set in a jazz club. Jittery beats meet warm analog textures for a late-night, slightly eccentric experience.

It's like a 1940s detective movie soundtracked by a guy with a sampler and a lot of weed.

A mysterious and slightly eccentric late-night journey through a smoky, jazz-filled urban landscape.

King Ashabanapal (part 0.75)
Moments Worth Waiting For
The way the Digidub mix strips the track down to a cavernous bassline and echoing horn stabs.
The sudden intrusion of a dry, academic vocal sample that turns the track into a surreal history lesson.
The rhythmic tension in part 0.75 where the beat feels like it might collapse before locking back into a groove.
