Eyes IV by Noni-Mouse

London-based Indian producer Noni-Mouse debuts on Early Reflex with Eyes IV, the latest installment in the label’s Eyes two-tracker series.

Following a series of acclaimed genre-fluid releases, Noni-Mouse arrives on the label with her heaviest record yet: a pair of raw, shadowy club cuts that double down on percussive pressure and weighty basslines.

With a background that spans 2-step, hardcore, and experimental club music, Noni-Mouse has become known for her sticky top lines, restless rhythmic sense, and tactile grooves. On Eyes IV, she dives into a darker, more physical register—retaining her unmistakable bounce while testing
the limits of a more abrasive, stripped-back sound.
Opening track “Bracket” lays down lurching breakbeat mechanics and squashed bass beneath flickers of manipulated vocal and synth debris—skipping along the edge of chaos with precision and swing. “Model” stretches out the mood with tense pacing and syncopated drum work, where melodic fragments smear across a pulsing low-end and flickering hi-hats, creating a hypnotic pull built for strobe-lit floors.

Eyes IV is a statement of intent from one of the most forward-thinking voices in the contemporary underground—a sharp-edged, club-ready exploration of rhythm and tone from an artist who continues to surprise.

Noni-Mouse said:
"With this release, I was attempting to test this ‘gritty, percussive’ sound that is currently heard across clubs and festivals, by crafting those grooves with breaks, while preserving that signature 'bounce'. The textural melodies are my favourite, as they end up adding another layer of percussion to the arrangement, creating this compelling groove that hits the spot."
