Per Hammar and Ukraine's Olga Korol present their next joint release 'Бешкет' (pronounced 'Beshket'). Aptly titled in native Ukrainian, the forgotten and unearthed term translates into 'brawl' / 'rumble' in English.
After meeting Olga in 2020 during the production of their first EP together, Swedish born Per Hammar has come to know and love Ukrainian culture and has since been studying the language, with the goal to one day be fluent.
Title track Бешкет / Beshket as the name suggests has a brawly nature to it, with a forward moving and offensive beat and darker garage-leaning bassline it shifts back and forth between a more in-your-face sound to a smoother subby one.
Track two titled Darth Vader is interestingly based on a poem that came into Olga's mind when they were mid-jam in the studio in Malmö. Featuring Olga's catchy vocals, the track also drops alongside a retro music video that the guys shot on a whim in Malmö, Sweden. In true 'Dirty Hands' style it was shot in a vintage VHS style whilst they drove their neighbor's old car, because she was too drunk to drive it they offered to move it for her and also asked if they could make the music video with it to which she agreed, so they made the video in this impromptu moment.
The EP closes with Jumbotron, which leans into more microhouse territory with quirky twangs, scattering drums and a groovy undertone. As always with Per & Olga, there is a driving push through all the bodies of work, complimented by Per's love for unusual machines and Olga's creative force.
