Sharda
Sharda emerged a few years ago.
Hyperactive bassline cuts and supercharged speed garage started getting smuggled into label-boss Murlo’s DJ sets – perplexing audiences with an outrageous, unruly dancefloor sound. Since those early airings, little more information has been uncovered. There’s just a SoundCloud, a hotbed of sugary loosies and one particularly infectious Jamelia edit.
Then in April, Sharda delivered a debut self-titled EP which freewheeled through piano house lite, bone-rattling jungle and breakneck UKG. One month later and the enigma remains with a contribution to the Crack Mix series now adding to the tantalising body of evidence. Occupying a similar space to the polychrome dancefloor deconstructions of Zora Jones and Sinjin Hawke’s Fractal Fantasy crew – Sharda plays sets for parties at the end of the world.
Take a deep breath and lock into this future-proof joyride.
Sharda’s self-titled EP is out now via Coil Records
