Jon Hopkins
Jon Hopkins has 3 tracks in the Ninja's rotation, leaning Electronic · Glitch, Electronic · Progressive House around 105 BPM — averaging 8.1/10 on the Ninja's scale.
The three cuts in rotation sit at the intersection of fractured electronic glitch and driving progressive house, each one threading microscopic detail into expansive, floor-facing arcs. That 8.1 average reflects a consistency in craft: the productions prize patience, letting static and stutter accumulate before locking into propulsive, hypnotic grooves.
On Domino, the sound reads as leftfield yet accessible, occupying a space where underground rhythmic complexity meets melodic payoff without diluting either. It is music built for systems that reward close listening, but the progressive house undercurrent ensures the low-end never forgets the club. The range is narrow but deep, and the score confirms it lands in the upper tier of the label’s electronic roster.
