Garnering highlights from tastemaker press and plays on national radio for their debut single, Mucky Pup arrived with a soulful electronica sound. The duo is comprised of multi-instrumentalist Erik Miles and vocalist Heidi Haswell, each bringing a versatile skillset to the project.
Their second single ‘Entry Is Free’, melts together expressive, warm vocal performances with gentle house grooves and vibrant sound design. A vivid, kaleidoscopic musical experience, distant saxophone melodies float through enveloping synthesisers, opening the door for a kick drum drive and funky bass grooves. Effortlessly balancing a sense of angelic ethereality with bouncy movement, the track is perfectly set for a summer evening, relaxing or partying.
Mucky Pup shares, “When making track we wanted to try and create something that felt like a dimensional experience to the listener. We wanted the audio to coincide with and mirror the premise for the song. We describe a mystical dreamscape where its visitors are encapsulated by its wonder.
From here we began playing with a variety of saxophone and synthesiser samples which we chopped and reversed trying to match the eerie vision we were painting within the songs context. With this concept in mind we created a track that is digestible and energetic, but with bubbling undertones woven throughout”
