Last month, CMJ caught up with Proximal co-founder Sahy Uhns to discuss his second album, Courtship Dances (OUT NOW). Check out what CMJ had to say about the album and read through the Q&A while you stream Courtship Dances, here.
CMJ on Courtship Dances:
Every moment is significant on Courtship Dances; every pitch-shift or untethered beat stutter or low-end bass drag marks a change in the album’s dynamic.
Sahy Uhns on the narrative of the new album:

An impressive feat of dancefloor evolution…Read the full review
J’ed(ed) / Chyme
The second track to be released from Courtship Dances was “J’ed(ed) / Chyme” which debuted on THUMP from managing editor Jemayel Khawaja who had this to say,
This tune comes out the gate as a raunchy, fidgetty heater and switches up into dystopian ghetto-tech beat now and again – but somewhere around the three minute mark, it devolves into a voided soundscape from which it never returns. The whole thing is an engrossing endeavor…Read the full review
