Flatfoot Sam – this UK dance music veteran’s journey began in 1995 with second-hand decks, evolving from vinyl releases and party promotion in the ’90s to creating TripField – his signature sound born during 2020’s lockdown. This innovative fusion genre combines chunky beats with Balearic serenity at sub-100 BPM, featuring warm bass, ethereal samples, and subtle acid lines. Drawing inspiration from rave culture and artists like Leftfield, Moby, and Massive Attack, TripField blends Triphop’s atmospheric nature with Leftfield’s experimental edge, creating a uniquely meditative yet energetic soundscape.
“Wetiko” by Flatfoot Sam unfolds as a mesmerizing journey through sonic landscapes, opening with an atmospheric foundation of eerie synths and haunting female vocals that echo like a ceremonial calling. The tribal undercurrent establishes a primal connection from the start, while the gradual build-up creates compelling tension in the backdrop.
