thatmanmonkz: non zero sum game

Francisco Espregueira

Based in Sheffield, Scott Moncrieff, a.k.a. Thatmanmonkz is an internationally acclaimed DJ, recording artist, producer, and also the label boss at SWAT, Hot Peas N Butter and Shadeleaf Music. Through Shadeleaf he follows the highly praised Columbusing with another project that fuses a mash up of broken-beat, hip hop, deep house and, maybe, everything else there is. Non Zero Sum Game, like its predecessor, is a work of art for the ages.

Exploring dancefloor moments, Thatmanmonkz aims to surpass the high barrier of the forgettable. His Non Zero Sum Game flows through 11 tracks, each one with its individual characteristics and influences, maintaining a cohesively brilliant whole. Dropping tomorrow, this could be an essential recording of this strange new post-everything musical landscape we’re in. After you're done with Non Zero Sum Game maybe you check out his earlier work as well.

This is ‘monkz allowing the ear ringing of gigs to feedback organically into bright dance floor flashes, which by virtue of their careful crafting are destined to last much longer.

It’s a pick ‘em and stick ‘em ride of individual gems and a cohesive whole too. The opposite of thrown together, this has been worked and weathered, naturally.

The House always wins, but sometimes... just sometimes.
