Listen: Lxury - "Playground"

16 May 2014, 13:45 | Written by Melanie Battolla

​Andy Smith, better known by his alter ego Lxury, is a South London one-man production team who single handedly shook the airwaves last autumn with his debut single, “J.A.W.S”, and its b-side, “We Do”. The tracks, produced in conjunction with Disclosure, were an organic and perfect introduction to the British producer who followed up this year with the Kitsuné endorsed, “Never Love”.

​Lxury is now set to release his debut Playground EP, and has unveiled its eponymous first single. The song will swallow you into a big, bright psychedelic cloud like the one depicted in the EP’s artwork. With a constant build up into a more highly energised, uplifting chords-led composition, the track will throw you into the new, bass-heavy future of house.

A tingling, crisp rhythm section counters the innocent vocal samples, creating beautiful vibes worth being the centre of this year’s summer jam.

Playground EP is released by Greco-Roman on 19 May.
