Dublin producer Sean Arthur aka Kobina hasn’t been around long but his expressed methods of working in a place “between 2-step, R&B and beat music” has worked well for him thus far in his short year producing.
The Ahome EP is his first release (on First Second label) and features four tracks that push those aforementioned characteristics with post-dubstep/2-step vibes, chopped and screwed R&B samples and ambient synth beats. “Theme music for the after-hours of clubs and the hazed walk home,” as Arthur calls it himself.
There’s also a fine Cillo remix:
