Rejected welcome Greek DJ/Producer Stelios Vassiloudis to their family with his superb label debut ‘Ricochet’.
Made on the move, as he trekked back and forth between Europe and South East Asia, both tracks share a sense of raw dynamism that is reflective of the touring and immediacy of Stelios’ mobile production setup. Less is more as they say, and this is never more pertinent than in the creation and sound of both ‘Keluar’ and ’Thick And Thin’.
Keluar, or ‘Get Out’ in Malay, forcefully issues its order via its thumping kick and rubbery bassline. Spring-loaded percussion snaps and fires as Stelios ushers in waves of synth and wails of vocal, before hurling us back into its heads-down groove.
On the flip, ’Thick And Thin’ teases us. Living up to its name via its stocky, thundering opening before blooming via its rippling atmospherics and chopped vocal, to become a beautiful deep house tool.
You can now listen to the full premiere of ’Thick And Thin’ exclusively on When We Dip. Enjoy!
