It's tempting to think that the opening moments of SCHLOSS02, which features the sound of track racing behind a cavernous broken kick, has some connection with the fact that Norwegian DJ and producer Karima F runs her label out of a disused Porsche repair shop with contemporary artist Ida Ekblad. But then you might start to wonder about other details, like whether her production is influenced by a teenage effort to fit in with the cool kids by playing the violin (it isn't).

The three songs on her self titled 12" take off in their own direction, tripping through bleeps and metallic riffs on the way to something more ethereal. Coming from a DJ who is as comfortable playing at Panorama Bar as she is holding a residency at Oslo's Jaeger Club, this debut is no easier to pin down than its creator.
