"Sweetz" is a collaborative Vinyl Maxi release by two of the UK's most influential electronic music producers, Zomby and Burial. Released on the renowned Hyperdub label in partnership with Cargo, this record stands as a testament to experimental bass-driven soundscapes and innovative production techniques. The track "Sweetz" merges Zomby's signature dark, atmospheric synths with Burial's iconic crackling textures and ghostly vocal samples, resulting in an immersive listening experience that pushes the boundaries of contemporary electronic music.
Zomby has built his reputation through genre-defying releases such as "Where Were U In '92?" and "Dedication," while Burial remains one of the most enigmatic figures in UK underground music, celebrated for his Mercury Prize-nominated album "Untrue." Their collaboration on "Sweetz" marks a significant moment for fans of forward-thinking club sounds.
