The inimitable Secret Fusion label serves up more left of center electronic music in October, this time from the innovative Sobek, with vital remixes from Musumeci, Bawrut and SouveQ.
For the last three years, Budapest based artist Sobek has been crafting a unique take on house and techno. Whether it be deconstructing glossy, polished originals with his unrivalled remixing talent, or days spent in the studio creating innovative and thought provoking original music across many sub genres, his sound has no boundaries. Monaberry, Chapter 24, TAU and Moblack have all put out his music and as well as having support from DJs like Black Coffee and Pete Tong, he also runs his own influential party series in his home city.
Things kick off in fine fashion with ‘Geiling Agent,’ a superb seven-minute cosmic house trip. It is built on broken kicks and with lush, far sighted arps bringing a feeling of real expansiveness. The thrilling ‘Mr Vibe’ is one to lock you in a trance with its bright, sustained chords and rolling drums. Haunting vocals slowly drift into ear shot to keep you locked as the melodies take over.
First to remix ‘Geiling Agent’ is Musumeci, a project by Mauro Di Martino, a Sicilian DJ and producer since the late 80s with releases on Innervisions and Connaisseur Recordings. There is plenty of class and retro-future style in his stomping, synth laden disco rework, which is full of colour and energy. Madrid based Bawrut, who has released on Life And Death this year and had high level DJ support, then brings a wide range of influences to his remix of ‘Mr Vibe’. It is a gorgeous track with punchy, slick deep techno drums and soulful chords that bring warmth and futurism. Secret Fusion label manager SouveQ is a long standing DJ and producer who has a string of successful collaborative projects under his belt and mixes up nu-wave, disco and techno. Here he goes for a drilling beat and celestial chords that are layered up in seductive ways with plenty of sci-fi details.
These are five full flavour tracks of brilliantly unusual sounds from Secret Fusion. You can now listen to the full premiere of Musumeci’s remix exclusiely on When We Dip. Enjoy!
