30Hz - In Your Ear

  • Share
  • Vertical Sound label boss 30Hz has been quite a busy boy lately with releases and remixes under his belt for labels such as Supercharged, Cyberfunk, MBN and a forthcoming release on lot49. His work with Baobinga as the Bodysnatchers has seen his production style change to incorporate a notable electro edge, which is also reflected in his solo work. His latest for Vertical Sound is ‘In Your Ear’ with Bristolian breaker Kraymon dropping a remix. Filled with spacey synths and trademark 30Hz beats, ‘In Your Ear’ is one hell of a crossover tune dropping a massive electro synth riff, dirty growling bass and deep hollow percussive effects in true Mr. 30 style. As the tune progresses, he adds to the electro flavour by putting in little variations to the synth and bass before stripping them all back and restarting from the beginning. As tested on the dancefloor, this definitely works well and bridges the (small?) gap between electrohouse and breakbeat. On a much lighter tip, Kraymon delivers a remix on the flip which leans toward a four to the floor tip loaded with funky stabs, clever hi-hat work and percussive Latin fills in the background. This is another release on Vertical Sound that will impress both the hardcore breakbeat heads as well as electrohouse fans. Personally I'm more into the original.
