Share

London-based underground talent Tian Karl returns to the fore in 2024 with the emergence of his new label ‘TRUST ISSUES’, a slew of new singles and his forthcoming album ‘THINGS TO SAY ABOUT WORDS’, set for release in early 2025. Giving the first insight into a body of works that has been in the making since 2015, ‘Flint’ eases us back into the trademark sound that saw Tian sign music to the likes of Defected, Black Butter Records, Nervous, InMotion, Avotre and many more in years past.

Undeniably danceable, ‘FLINT’ is flooded with chugging grooves, hearty low-end swing, and dreamy electronic musicality from start to finish. A head-turning Minimal / Deep Tech dancefloor jam, ‘FLINT’ is one of several tracks on Tian’s forthcoming LP that bridge the gap between the sound he’s known and loved for and the newer, more experimental side of his productions, which showcase a plethora of mature and fearlessly artistic traits.

Tian Karl emerged in London’s scene in 2015 and, within a few months, had left his mark on imprints such as Defected, Black Butter Records, Nervous, InMotion, Avotre and many more. As releases on respected labels usually do, they led him to play at iconic venues such as XOYO and Ministry Of Sound. A forced hiatus in 2018 took him out of focus for a while and changed his sound into more introspective themes while not abandoning his signature garage and Neo soul-infused dancefloor sound. “There will always be traces of house, garage, Neo soul, maybe even IDM in my sound without ever being one thing only, I guess. It’s just what happens when I make music. I don’t think about it, to be honest.” he describes his process. In 2024, Tian returns with his own imprint, TRUST ISSUES, with Issue001 “FLINT”, marking his first single (post-hiatus) and his debut album “THINGS TO SAY ABOUT WORDS”, following later in early 2025.

Whether you’re an existing fan of Tian’s work or you’re late to the party, one thing is for sure: the incoming wave of releases that lead into ‘THINGS TO SAY ABOUT WORDS’ play perfectly into the hands of anyone with an eclectic palette and an appreciation for artists who dare to be musically vulnerable in search of a newfound reputation for pushing the boundaries of contemporary dance music and rigid underground nuances.
