MAETRIK – UNLEASH THE BEAST

ARTIST: MAETRIK

TITLE: UNLEASH THE BEAST EP

LABEL: ELLUM

This is an extract from Maouris promotions – we could not have said it better:

First sampled in classic early 90s record ‘Poem’ by Bobby Konders, the words of Reggae poet Mutaburuka have surfaced again as a dominant feature in a-side ‘The Poem’ – a slice of deep tech bubbling with heat, richly dark atmosphere, and syncopated drums.

Having long resonated with Eric Estornel aka Maetrik/Maceo Plex, the producer has utilized the original verse from a def-poetry jam video creating a bona fide bomb in the process with a nod to the classic era of house.

Next up, Maceo Plex gets “Revenge” with his ‘Walk Alone’ remix combining his own well-renowned vocal flair with a cascade of synth melodies and stabs of wonky bass driven by slick beats and the ever-marauding bassline.

The toughest and techiest cut on the EP comes with closer ‘To The Top’, showcasing a raw and dirty warehouse vibe with a growling low-end, wonky bass synths and flecks of acid.

The EP is out 13th August 2012.

Ranking is 8/10.
