UPFRONTBEATS

As Matthias Tanzmann’s label enjoys its 16th year with more trendsetting EPs and much talked about events round the world, the boss steps out with a new EP in collaboration with long time label stalwart Sven Tasnadi.

Already this year Tanzmann has served up two sizzling tracks in cahoots with Daniel Stefanik, whilst Sven last appeared here with two great EPs and a longplayer in 2015. Together the pair bring out the best in each other’loopy grooves, deep moods and lots of dance floor dynamism.

Opening up the trio of top tracks is ‘Such A Thing’, a firmly rooted roller with airy hi hats sounding big in the mix. Crisp claps add bite and the infectiousness of the drums and pendulous bass will be impossible to ignore in the coming weeks and months.

Next up, the tantalising ‘Teo Teo’ is a bristling number with a hustle of drums and toms making for a loose limbed groove. Colourful synths bubble up through the mix like a freaky dial tone and a cheeky vocal repeats the title’s refrain in playful fashion. It’s the sort of thing that locks the whole ‘floor onto a groove and never lets up.

Lastly, ‘Coriolis’ gets deep, with big bass notes making for a cavernous chamber of sound. Nervy little melodies are suggestive and haunting and the drums are big, sucking you in with each rotation. It’s perfect backroom music for heads down dancing, and rounds out a varied and vital EP once again from the Leipzig crew.
