Following the widely acclaimed release of 'Body Shell' in Spring 2025, Carre returns to Tempa, for a new EP, 'Hibiscus', featuring a collaborative track with LA-based artist Bbyafricka, highlighting the synergy of West Coast Rap & London Soundsystem culture. Connected by warmth and groove that define where Carre is musically right now, each of the four tracks on 'Hibiscus' stands on it's own, yet together they continue to showcase Carre's flair for producing sleek dubstep with melodic verve. From the shimmering 'Warm Light', the razor-sharp edge of 'X Effect', the deep stepper 'Ride It Out', to the stripped back 'Hibiscus' which glows with the addition of Bbyafricka's sultry vocals, the EP is a concise statement of Carre's evolving sound.Speaking about the collaboration, Carre says, 'I'd been a fan of Bbyafricka's sound, style, and tone - tracks like 'Baton Rouge' and 'Dumbo' really stood out to me - and I could already imagine how her voice would fit with my production. The fact that she's from LA made the connection feel even more natural. When I reached out, she was down straight away and came back with something I genuinely loved. She captured the energy of the track perfectly, and together I think we created something that feels authentic and even better than I'd imagined.'For Bbyafricka, working on 'Hibiscus' was a moment of overcoming writer's block, 'this song was me coming out of it on a weekend spent in Joshua tree, sitting outside looking at the view and the solar panels. I think you can envision what my view was when you play the song,' she explains. Carre's next outing on Tempa is a welcome return, signifying the home run she's on as a producer and marking another impressive installment in the producer's growing catalogue. In the last three years, Carre has quickly become a leading figure in the contemporary wave of artists pushing the true school Dubstep sound to new places and new audiences, expanding on the roots laid down by the likes of Skream, Benga, and Loefah.
