Charlie Banks - Ask My Name - PIV

London-based producer Charlie Banks returns to PIV Records with the drop of his latest single, "Ask My Name". Known for his distinctive blend of minimal and deep house, and armed with the support of some of the biggest underground names, Charlie delivers an infectious track that highlights the artist’s knack for perfectly capturing the essence of the dance floor.

Decided from the first beat, Charlie Banks sets “Ask My Name” off with an irrepressible bassline that lays the foundations for racing blips that glide over the reflective pavement, drawing captivating figures before the Londoner triggers a tantalizing vocal. Working that twilight magic, quirky synthetics start to ebb and flow, inducing a narcotic blanket over the piece before reaching a minimalistic breakdown, allowing for the tension to cleverly build up without the need for any over-glossed gimmick before unleashing a rousing third act as that vocal takes us deeper than ever before.

Dark, sophisticated, and soulful, Charlie Banks’s “Ask My Name” is a driving, late-night weapon that expands upon the artist’s vivid catalog while expertly posing as a state-of-the-art listening experience.
