London DJ/Producer JD. Reid collaborates with Mr. Carmack for his EP titled ‘Io’ which will be out this Friday, April 8th, via Rinse. The EP includes collaborations with Grime legend D Double E and Zilo as well. “I’m a big fan of all three of the collaborators,” JD. Reid says. “They’re unique individuals who each brought their own element and vibe to the tunes I was making with them.

When it came to getting a grime MC for the track ‘Rōshi,’ D Double’s the only one I could hear on the song, he’s inimitable. Carmack is one of the reasons I make music like this. Working with Zilo on ‘Emancipation’ was a really good experience—the track came about naturally and I feel we are really on the same page musically.” Check out the tune below, and make sure to Pre-Order the EP on iTunes.
