Bradler & Dualton "Glow"
Out Now on Red Light District
Mathias Bradler of Mashtronic teams up with Cologne duo Dualton for Red Light District´s forth release with two totally different remixes by Deepchild and Erphun. ‘Glow´ is a hypnotic and chuggy builder track with a touch of melody that has been finding its way in the boxes of John Digweed, Jim Rivers and many more.
‘Glow´ is a wonderful slice of music. I´m not sure if it´s more techno than tech house or more progressive than either. It´s a real mixed bag of sounds that seem to work perfectly on the floor. There´s acidy bits hiding in the background and a melodic hook that builds in arrangement as the drums hit hard, punching in all the right places. The bass is fat and rumbles my speakers and when the drop happens, it´s all pretty devastating. The break lasts for ages and builds slowly creating a solid environment for any creative DJ to go nuts. The beats and bass cut in again and the sounds build forever more. A killer track.
Australian producer Deepchild has a huge discography with releases out on Freerange, Ministry of Sound, and Om Records to name a few. In a short amount of time, he´s developed his own funky, tech house grooves and injects ‘Glow´ with a healthy dose of acidy bits, cut up samples, voices and drums with thick ass crunch that makes me want to get down. What a fantastic and weirdly cool remix that should appeal to the Dirtybird posse.
Los Angeles´ Erphun has been carving a niche recently with his rumbly textured techno. His music has been showing up in Dubfire and Digweed sets and he´s finally getting the attention he deserves. Erphun strips ‘Glow´ of most of its melodies and lays down the mental elements tenfold. The drums are strangely syncopated and the bassline stutters, creating a weird but infectious groove. The acid is gone and the only elements left are the airy bits with a pulsing rhythm. This is one for the heavy floors.
Speakers beware! This is a truly strong release with three completely different interpretations of ‘Glow´. Bradler and Dualton make a great team in the studio and I hope they continue on this path.
