Canadian beat-maker Elaquent crafts sounds so mesmerizing and wonky, he’s like some Dilla-meets-Dali hybrid. The producer currently has one hometown live date scheduled in Guelph, Ont., on Dec. 14 and he just released a new EP in October called Parallel. You can stream this record here now until Dec. 10.

“With this particular record, I challenged myself to compose more and do all the bass and keys all by myself,” he told CBC Music this past fall. “I’m not gonna lie and say there’s 100 per cent no samples, but I’d say this record is 95 per cent what I do with the sounds I have.”
