about

Esseks (Sam Eckstein) is a Brooklyn-based producer and visual artist. His music ranges all the bass-centric genres with a focus on the off-kilter. All of his work, both musically and visually, is tied together by Eckstein’s subtle but instantly recognizable sound/aesthetic. It is dark but playful. Cartoon Villain music as he would say. He has built up a large catalog of music since his first release in 2012 and has put out releases highlighted by Wakaan, Deadbeats, SubCarbon, Saturate, Gravitas Recordings, Foundations Recordings (CA), and Smokers Cough (NY) along with a robust catalogue of self releases and collaborations.

Shanghai Doom is a producer duo hailing from the humid urban streets of Central Jersey. These “lizard men,” as fans refer to them, combine ripping mechanized audio files with mind-blowingly exquisite sub frequencies. Their signature sound can only be described as Picasso level originality mixed with Mozart level composition. In 2018, Shanghai Doom sent a flash drive with their SoundCloud spotlight tracks to a distant planet suspected to have extraterrestrial life forms inhabiting it. Mike and Andrew patiently wait for their overlords to return the message, however some conspiracy theorists state that they are actually the overlords themselves, sent through a vortex time warp to share the exotic sounds of an alien race.


“We met each other at the Buku Festival Wakaan afterparty at the Joy Theater in New Orleans. I flew in to play and every hotel in town including mine was overbooked so I called Neil [Luzcid] who was also at the party and was in the same boat. He found a couch to stay on at an air bnb with some other Wakaan team members that included the Shanghai Doom boys and they let me crash in the living room. The next day we all had the day off so we did the drinking on Bourbon St. tourist experience. I had heard of Shanghai Doom and liked their music but it never came up that it was them and we ended up becoming friends through our day of tourism and drinking before I even realized who they were. We are all from the NYC area so we saw each other around a lot after that so collaborating came up naturally and we all just got together at my place and made the two songs together in person”- ESSEKS
