The mighty Weekend Heroes join Sprout for their debut with a double header of epic proportions - Strive EP. Over the past decade, Zombi and Timelock, aka Weekend Hereos have amassed a healthy back catalogue with music signed to everyone from Global Underground to Toolroom. Their trademark style has won them many plaudits opening them up to working with some huge names including Jerome Isme-Ae, Paul Thomas and Wally Lopez. Opening with ‘Strive’ featuring the vocal talents of Miper, we are quickly transported into the duos unique sonic playground as tribal rhythms mix with eerie FX and growling bass notes. Building a head of steam to the main break, Miper’s sultry whispers are amplified in a subtle sea of reverb. Teaming up with Or Kopel, ‘Wild East’ is equally ethereal. Taking a more tech route initially, the melodics soon create a new tension with exciting results. Becoming more epic towards the break, there’s little time for a breath as the intensity is ramped up again, ending with a monstrous final act.
