Leeds-based talent Morgan Cole makes his debut on Patrick Topping’s Trick with ‘Ready For Love’, a modernist rave two-tracker featuring a lively house cut backed by a techno bomb.

A label continuing to discover and push new and emerging talent from across the scene, late-October sees Patrick Topping’s Trick imprint recruit Morgan Cole for his first release under his own name. Previously known as Noizy Devil, Cole has spent the last few years honing his craft within the studio, capturing the ears of leading names including Eli Brown, Richy Ahmed, PAWSA, and of course, Patrick Topping along the way.

Brash, energetic, and pacey, ‘Ready For Love’ opens the release with a firm display of early 90’s hardcore tropes welded to modern house aesthetics. Looping hands-in-the-air piano riffs, cleverly pitched vocal refrains, and searing siren-synths atop robust stripped-back beats, Cole delivers an infectious dancefloor rouser.

‘I Can’t Stop’, driven by raw sawtooth bass, sees Cole make crafty use of another addictive vocal sample, nudging the Rave’O’Meter up to eleven. With an arsenal of highly effective synth flourishes, it acts as the perfect companion to the title track, with this release showing a producer injecting modernity into classic UK rave sounds.
