Prequel is a newcomer with an old soul sound. The Melbourne producer’s music draws from jazz, hip hop and analogue dance traditions, all balanced with expert care and restraint. His debut 12″ Polite Strangers has been picked up by Rhythm Section International, a respected label known only for excellence, and it’s being launched this Saturday at Boney. There’s a deep learning behind the deep house tracks on offer here, and Prequel was kind to share some of the lessons he’s learned along the way. Listen up.
