Kristi Yang

On the back of his recent Back on my Bullshit EP, a collaboration between Kristi Yang & Ms Chin, out now on Lee Foss’ sister label South of Saturn, we welcome Kristi Yang to the takeover mix.

Miami based Zach Comisar, aka Kristi Yang, has been grabbing attention all over the place, firstly with his magnificent debut EP Genesis.exe and now this collection of off-kilter vocal house tracks.

He’s included a couple of tracks from the EP in the mix, and a couple of solo tracks as well, packed alongside tracks from the likes of Tiga, Patrick Topping, Big Miz, Kevin Over and Dennis Ferrer. - Backseat Mafia

Kristi Yang & Ms Chin join forces for the eccentric ‘Back On My Bullshit EP’ this January on South Of Saturn.

Having been first introduced via Repopulate Mars’ annual ‘Summer Jams’ compilation in 2020, Kristi Yang and Ms Chin (one of the famed ‘alien’ dancers from Repopulate Mars’ immersive events) make their debut on Lee Foss’ sister label South Of Saturn with a set of bumping and off-kilter vocal house tracks.

Across the release, Ms Chin’s sharp vocals meet Kristi Yang’s bubbling production, perfectly exemplified on lead track ‘Could Be The One’. Bouncy percussion and laser focussed synthesis wrap around Ms Chin’s stream of consciousness performance, leading the track through a series of scintillating breakdowns.

‘Back On My Bullshit’ sees the duo deliver a relentless bassline alongside jacking drums, with the occasional siren topping off what is a raucous affair. Wrapping up the EP is the restless and bumping ‘Eee Iii Aaa’ which rolls effortlessly with quirky sample slices and vocals.

Repopulate Mars’ annual Summer Jams compilation returns for 2020 with fresh cuts from the likes of Yolanda Be Cool, Tough Love and Chris Larsen.

Lee Foss’ imprint delivers 12 tracks from existing label artists like John Summit and Chris Larsen while welcoming the likes of Kristi Yang, Bedran, Rone White and ODCEE. As always with Repopulate Mars, bumping peak time house is the order of the day and the package provides enough ammunition for a summer’s worth of dancing.

From the maximal, bass-heavy and rave-infused opener, ‘In Your Arms’, from Australian duo Yolando Be Cool to the slick, paired-back roller ’Now You Know’ from Miami’s DOONS, each track here has earned its place. Vocals, hooks and melodies are as prevalent on Summer Jams as rock solid grooves, too. London’s Tough Love, John Summit & Dead Space, Andre Salmon & Eurostep, Kristi Yang and Alvaro Smart all provide anthemic and all-to-rare vocal heavy tracks which leap out of the speakers while relative newcomers BEDRAN and Rone White & Rowen Clark both toy with spoken vocal samples to great effect. The heavier cuts on Summer Jams, like Piem’s thundering ‘Absolutely’ and ODCEE’s ‘Fila’ provide trackier vibes for heads-down moments but, as usual for Repopulate Mars, do so without sacrificing any identity.

Repopulate Mars has been continually redefining what peak time house is since its inception in 2016 and its Summer Jams release for 2020 neatly encapsulates what the label is all about.
