Leading UK house label, NRK Music, embraces the digital age with their first ever exclusively digital release. 

Available on Beatport for an exclusive period, NRK Music welcomes Belfast DJ/producer Scope (aka Ric McClelland) to the fold, and his debut for NRK has ‘epic’ stamped all over it.

Influenced by producers as varied as Kerri Chandler, Ian Pooley and Funk D’Void, Scope has been making great headway in the production world with some stellar works for labels like Urban Torque, Forensic and CR2. bridging the gaps between soulful, deep house and techier territories, Scope has also remixed for the likes of Francois Dubois, Milton Jackson and Little Green men.

NRK go digital-only for the first time ever in the label’s illustrious 12-year history.  On his NRK debut, Scope delivers a great anthemic deep house production.

‘Omoplata’ delivers steady, swinging punchy beats, heavy, thick stabs and dramatic strings not heard since Quentin Harris’s ‘Let’s Be Young’.

Comparisons will be made to Quentin’s finest hour, but Scope commands his own style here. The ‘313’ mix gets all acidic on yo’ ass with some classic old skool pianos, giving this mix a nice retro feel.
