Matrefakt kick things off for 26 with two tracks, dropping February 20th on their own Attitudes To Life imprint.
First up! Filt keeps things raw and floor focused from the first bar with a cocktail of driving drums laced with unmistakable French touch. Crisp, filtered grooves and rolling bass lines with shimmering disco elements sweep through the arrangement, crisp hi-hats, soaring strings and just the right amount of nostalgic warmth that nods back to the golden era without ever sounding retro for retro's sake.
Secondly, i2i increases the pace with a no nonsense cut built around constant drums and chopped samples that never let the momentum slip. The Liverpool duo drive the track with relentless energy, layering in sweeping FX and subtle dynamic shifts that pull the listener deeper without ever breaking the hypnotic grip captivating from the jump and staying locked in through every twist.
