Track Of The Day 16/2 – Utrecht

In Association With Cheap Monday...

Utrecht has a rare sense of energy.

There's a buoyancy to his productions that can't be denied, a sense of colour rippling through each note.

The producer – real name James McIntosh – recently made his live debut at London's Pickle Factory, utilising a carefully curated live band.

It was a fun show, one heavy on promise, on a feeling of raw potential about to be fulfilled.

Utrecht is currently gearing up to release his debut 'Next Time' EP, and Clash is able to premiere the title cut.

Passionate songwriting, the vocal is laced with soulful conviction while the beats are crisp, pointed, and imbued with an urgent sense of funk.

Reminiscent of Jungle or Hot Chip's imperial pop phase, you can check it out below.

Brought to you in association with Cheap Monday. Check out their latest offerings over on their website now.
