Franz Johann – HandMade EP

Here’s something fresh out on B.A.B.A. Records by Austrian producer Franz Johann. Now, I’ve personally followed both the label and the artist in previous years and both have pushed out some amazing releases. This one is another one to add to the list.

This EP comes in 3 parts; two original tracks and one remix. The title track ‘Handmade’ has an addictive bouncy, yet rolling bassline sat nicely under some shaker style tech hats. A nice mixture of subtle synths and pads add to the feel of this. Great track for the dancefloors. Next up is the track ‘Woof’, which feels like it has a faster pace than the title track, some dark stabs give this one a bit of attitude, absolutely love it. The final track on the EP is the Batusim Edit of Woof. Slightly more bass-heavy than the original but keeping loads of the dark elements, some really nice builds and breakdowns.

I would definitely play all three out in the clubs. Full support from us, great EP! Grab your copy now…

Nout Masalute – Can’t Stop Remix EP

Okay, so I’ve been meaning to review this for a few days now but haven’t been able to due to being away from a computer, out gigging and doing the radio show. I have been sent literally hundreds of track submissions this week and this EP stood out from most. Sent in from Austrian label ‘BABA Records’ is this remix package of the the track ‘Can’t Stop’ by ‘Nout Masalute’. This package consists of two remixes, first up is the ‘Gee Van D Never Stop Dub Mix’, well to me, this is tech house/techno at it’s finest! This has some great drum fills, eerie stabs, creepy vocals all sitting nicely over a lovely deep subby bassline. I particularly like the sidechained string chord sat in the background. This version has so many little elements building into the track, it is simply awesome. The next remix is the ‘Franz Johann ReShuffled Edit’. This is a lot more lively than the previous remix, making great use of a nice open hat in the drum pattern which I feel, defines this version. I love the big deep sub-bass riff sitting under the drums and can imagine this ‘going off’ on a big sound system at a big underground event. I played the Franz Johann remix on my radio show on Saturday morning and got a great response, we shall definitely be supporting this release. Get on this now, you need it!
