Oeuvre

Directly translated to 'a body of art', Mako's LP 'Oeuvre' is representative of his life's work in music production. The switching breaks of 'Heartstone', slamming, yet eerily hollowed snares of 'Offline' and grinding bassline of 'Life Cycle' alongside the late Andy Skopes, a testament to the legacy he left behind, set the tone. Meanwhile, Villem and Fields join Mako for the LP's next collaboration 'Liquid Groover' before the emotive swelling build of 'The Window' gives way to a second drop beat switch up, continuing the journey. 'Flip it' has already been doing the club rounds, as the moody Photek atmospherics of 'One Reality' and more affectional twists of 'Holding You' adds to the tracklist's versatility.

'The Scenic Values' underscores Mako's love of Krust and Doc Scott production grooves, whilst the experimental soundscape of 'Hoxton Home' heralds back to old Lemon D. 'Oh Really' finishes the album's more club-orientated offerings, which follows with a 170bpm techno style track via 'Passive Aggressor'. 'Oeuvre' is a walkthrough of Mako's many personalities as a musician and it finds a welcome home within Metalheadz's historic discography.
