v.a. – neon nights sampler 2
The Diynamic Neon Nights in Ibiza were a huge success in summer 2012. Groovy, sexy and deep was the maxim and that theme has continued with the Neon Nights samplers, now in their 2nd incarnation showcasing a batch of the labels finest talent as well as a new track from label boss Solomun.
Opener ‘Catch the Light’ shows fast risers on the scene Adriatique at the top of their game with an ability to bring a dancefloor to its knees. As the simple, infectious bassline moves the crowd, the swinging groove opens up with a fusion of 80s style synths and powerful electronic keys.
When playing the second track by kingpin Solomun, you’ll understand fairly quickly why he named it ‘Boot Camp’. Kicking off the mood with a dark and severe energy, long and short melancholic string notes alternate until they rise up in a dramatic climax, while the catchy bass drives your feet.
‘Pendos’ is a rhythmical masterpiece. Dominant percussions and a low-pitched bass gradually build as NTFO weave their spell with blurred voices and a haunting police siren that creeps directly under your skin, resulting in a moody head-trip.
Hearing the cosmic-house sound that defines Betoko’s track ‘Sky In Your Eyes’, you can imagine yourself drifting into space. Shooting beams of starlight surround as melodic vocals float softly to underline the euphoric mood.
Here is a snippet from Solomun’s ‘Bootcamp’ as a brief apetizer:
