verso  Newcastle, United Kingdom

Papua New Guinea born producer Verso combines stuttering synths, sepia soul samples and a swollen bass heavy groove . The analogue production aesthetic leans heavily on the Juno 6 synthesiser and MPC sampler for a nostalgic 1980s vibe. There are nods to J Dilla and DJ Premier in inspiration, but Verso diverts to his own course bleaching a scant lyrical path, allowing the beats to do the talking.
