Following the weighty introduction of Nice & Easy, Objectiv returns to The North Quarter with Familiarity, a deeper, more meditative cut that reveals another facet of his forthcoming EP, Quiet Block. Built around a rolling, hypnotic bassline that seems to stretch endlessly into the distance, Familiarity moves with quiet confidence and effortless momentum. Crisp, clean, funk-fueled drums keep the groove locked while subtle dubwise echoes and soulful textures drift in and out of focus, creating a soundscape that feels both intimate and expansive. There is a natural flow to the track, a sense that it could loop forever without ever losing its pull, its brilliance living in the strength of its simplicity. The track carries a timeless quality, echoing the warmth and depth of a bygone golden era while remaining unmistakably modern in its execution. It strikes a rare balance between physical weight and introspective mood. The subs are deep and enveloping, yet the overall atmosphere remains mysterious, calm and quietly emotive, equally at home in late-night headphone sessions or during heads-down moments on a proper system. Where Nice & Easy explored darker, more overtly forceful territory, Familiarity shows Objectiv's range and musical sensitivity, hinting at the broader emotional and sonic palette of Quiet Block. It is a reminder that impact does not always come from aggression. Sometimes it comes from groove, space and perfectly judged repetition.
