Issun-bōshi vinyl RP

Establishing his persona as one of the most creative and versatile Slovenian underground DJs, MMali is about to add production skills to his biography. Having been DJing and promoting parties in Slovenia for over 10 years, he has built a reputation for shaping the local scene with a unique sound and vision.

The EP unfolds with patience, slowly building through MMali’s love for melodic and percussive-heavy genres, inspired by the selections he makes as Issun-Boshi, his ambient alter ego. Its peak arrives with a strong, dub-driven Inland remix, before closing on a wave of emotion. These tracks capture the essence of early morning endings, moments he has made his signature when closing events.

20 September is a historical date for Matej and his Endemit crew – an official release of his first vinyl on their home label, named after his alter ego Issun-Boshi, a one-inch samurai who overcomes all obstacles to win the heart of a princess, owning his shortcomings and outgrowing them. Accompanied on this journey by his brother-by-heart and master Ed Davenport, also known as Inland.
