Over the past few months, Australian producer/DJ 1tbsp has been steadily building anticipation for his latest ep with a string of irresistible singles. Now, the wait is over as he proudly unveils the full Hotel Living EP , a vibrant and eclectic collection of tracks that push the boundaries of electronic music.
Following the successful releases of Wet Peak Stars (feat. Meth Math ) , Rush (Missing Out On Me) (feat. cherry chola & Purient ) , and Isso (feat. MC Pânico ) , 1tbsp delivers three brand new tracks that complete the story with Dolly Destructiva (feat. cherry chola) , It Hurts So Bad (feat. DJ ADHD ) , and Rosas Y Besitos (feat. cherry chola).
Hotel Living EP is a colourful sonic journey that fuses the energy of club music with a playful Latin – American flair. 1tbsp skilfully balances underground textures with infectious pop sensibilities, crafting tracks that are as danceable as they are innovative. From sweaty dancefloors to late – night headphone sessions, this EP is a testament to 1tbsp’s genre – fluid approach and his knack for creating music that connects across cultures and scenes.
“Hotel Living feels like a zeroed in extension to my previous release Megacity1000. I wanted to find a concept that still had the busy – ness and variety of a city but could exist within a room, and hotel living came to mind. Unexpectedly, all the songs are very upbeat and to me feel like this mix between sensitivity and rushing.
The process was similar to how I always work. I make hundreds of sketches, usually a few a day, until some start to stand out. Also in DJing, I like to explore sounds that might influence my production, and I started to incorporate some old French house music that I listened to as a teenager. I think that really came through in the EP. I worked with Cherry Chola on three of the six songs, she’s become one of my favourite people to make songs with.” ~ 1tbsp
