UPFRONTBEATS

Long time elrow resident De la Swing brings his passionate production prowess to the next release on their in-house label. The Barcelona based DJ and producer provides us with three solid, dance-floor ready tracks. Featuring two original productions and a remix by rising star Shaf Huse, which is a tech-house banger in its own right.

Opening the EP, title track Face To Face (Enter The Rave Rework) is a percussive track with a heavy acid treatment and a catchy vocal line. It’s a straight-forward, physical affair, made to tear up dance-floors. On his remix of the same track, Shaf Huse infuses the track with a quicker percussion, a bit of melody and some FX, making it the perfect transient track for any moment on the floor. Closing the EP Dihue takes the EP on a completely different track, with a sexier vibe and finer and more elegant touches. The melodic treatment and catchy vocal loop will make this track feature heavily in sets this summer.

De la Swing brings a depth and touch of fun to his DJ sets and productions, a style that saw him play the final set of elrow’s closing party at the iconic Space in 2016. A mainstay on the party island he’s also showcased his sounds to the dance-floor of Amnesia. As a resident of elrow, he’s taken over the stages of some of the biggest festivals across the globe including Hideout, Les Plages Electroniques, Electric Zoo, Miami Winter Music Conference, BPM and Mysteryland. As producer he’s released on labels including Kaluki and Material. 2018 looks set to shape up to be a huge year for this in-demand DJ producer.
