Label manager of Coldtap Recordings, Norman H, makes his debut on his label with this quality release by the name of Wrapped In Plastic. Armed with an Original mix as well as a reworking from Lee Neilson, this release looks set to be another quality outing for the label.

The Original Cherry Pie Mix is a big tune. Suited to a James Zabiela set in particular, the production begins with a moody intro before some nice chunky beats accompanied by some atmospheric hums get the track into gear. Once the massive haunting baseline kicks in, however, it is clear to see which direction this chunky piece of music is heading. Quirky electronic effects come in mid way into the track to enhance the gritty feel this track has. All in all, it’s not for the faint hearted that’s for sure.

The Lee Neilson Special Agent Mix is a little smoother and less dirty then the a-side. Nice warm pads float in and out of the productions as the track flows smoothly for the most part, until it hits a nice breakdown midway in that sees some smooth piano type synths give the track a nice melodic touch. The nice atmospheric elements remain from the original, giving this remix the nice aura the original had.

A quality release from an ever impressive label. Be sure to tap into the sounds of this label as you might be heavily impressed.
