Step yo’ game up in case the words I.R.L. and Wut are jibberish to you. Those two are the impressive first releases of twenty-four-year-old London-based producer Philip Gamble. Don’t become hesitant because of the generic descriptions of his style. Using only sounds and ideas from kuduro , grime, glitch or Baltimore beat, and making them his own, Girl Unit is not just another kid with no direction. On both releases Girl Unit uses the typically hiphoppy 808 snare fills, horns, deep pounding bases, howling vocals and trancy synths. Never knowing where the song takes you, always trusting the end result. Apparently dj’s were jacking clips from online mixes therefor his label (Night Slugs) pushed up the release of his newest joint Wut.
