04. Step Thru

How low can you go? French producer Fulgeance answers this eternal question with his second album in the space of one year,
Step Thru. Released as a limited-edition CD on the rx:tx label, with impressive packaging and cover graphics
by Ease, Step Thru continues to explore Fulgeance’s self-coined low club style, taking it further down below
into the dark, cavernous crevices that lie between hip hop and electronic music.

On Step Thru Fulgeance returns to a simpler production approach that strips back the unnecessary and focuses on the key elements
that make people move – the track’s rhythmic swing, its bass melodies and haunting hooks. He also indulges in some new school hip hop
with two vocal tracks featuring MC Fresh Daily and Yinka. The very last track of the album, the cherry on top, is Kelpe's excellent remix of the title track.

Whichever track you choose to focus on, Step Thru offers a masterclass in musical craftsmanship. This is the sound of a man
who’s mastered his instruments – be they analogue or digital – and who has an equally deep understanding of where he wants to take his music.

rx:tx is designed to provide a platform and distribution networks for fresh artists from all over the world, with a specific focus on artists from Slovenia and the broader region whose lively production of electronic beats, bumps, tricks and cracks resonates from our speakers. rx:tx collaborates with artists and labels whose music we like, and whose music activism we appreciate and support.
