Cor Caroli – All Night Long EP

Another release from the Arcko Digital label, and what an absolute whopper it is too! This is a massive two-track EP from Arcko regular ‘Cor Caroli’ hailing from sunny Espanol.

Track one is called ‘All Night Long’ and is a lovely disco infused tech-house banger. A definite feel good tune! Loads of filtering, drum fills, funky wah guitars, and a completely infectious rolling bassline. I think this one is going straight into my next set, I can’t wait to see a crowd reaction on this!

The second track on the EP is called ‘Whatsup’ and is a lot more underground. This features a huge bassy synth stab throughout with a deep bumpy bass pattern, all laid perfectly under some nice sketchy tech drums. Really loving the arrangement of this, everything seems to kick in and drop out perfectly.

So all in all, it’s a massive thumbs up from me. You’d be mental to pass up on this EP. It’s out now so why are you still reading this? Go get it….

Preview: Thomas Leigh – Give U

An absolute corker coming soon on Arcko Digital by producer ‘Thomas Leigh’ with two awesome remixes to boot. The original has a really nice repeating vocal with a flowing organ pattern and an old school stabby synth riff, all sat nicely over some cool, deep drums. Great track!

The remixes are by Arcko Digital’s very own D’Marco and Cor Caroli and both are slightly tougher than the original. D’Marco’s mix features a nice airy breakdown before a big snare fill and drop into a deep bass pattern, very nice. Cor Caroli’s remix takes full advantage of the organ pattern but adds some real nice drums and gives it a real big sound.

This is released on 17th November, I can’t wait!

James The Cat – Robbin Bastard

Here’s something on Arcko Digital that I’m particularly excited about. Already having a popular following on the label, James The Cat has brought us this huge track and thrown in a couple of remixes too!

The original mix is nice and techy with an absolutely awesome bassline and some lovely chord stabs! I gotta be honest, I can’t find anything I don’t like about this track, it’s great throughout with loads of elements kicking in and dropping out constantly. Very well put together.

The first remix is by DJ Tweek and is a lot more upbeat, sounding like a very percussive old garagey grime track or an old filth electro track, I can’t decide! I like the acid sounding bass stabs throughout, big drops and lots of percussion. Very nice!

So, when I was sent this from the label, the label owner wrote something along the lines of ‘I think the Cor Caroli Remix will be your favourite’, well that was spot on, I like it that the label boss knows my style all too well! This remix is absolutely HUGE!! Not so long ago I featured an EP by Cor Caroli and he hasn’t disappointed this time, I’m a big fan! In this one he has literally catered for everything; big synth stabs, big bassline, big builds and big drops. I can’t wait to play this out.

My only grumble is that I’ll never get to play it on the radio as it says the word ‘bastard’, but I guess I could bleep it out! If you do anything today, then listen to this! Out NOW..

Cor Caroli – People EP

You may recall an EP I recently reviewed on the same label as this one, the label is called Arcko Digital and is definitely up there on my ‘top labels’ list for 2014. This is a fresh EP and a debut on this label for Spanish producer ‘Cor Caroli’.

A nice two-part EP starting off with the title track ‘People’. It has a huge thumpy deep bassline sitting nicely under some offbeat snares and some tight hats. I particularly like the breakdown of this track as it has what sounds like a crowd cheering in the background and some choppy drums and vocals sitting on top, a nice funky element to the track before a familiar spoken male vocal takes over and then it drops back into the bassline. Honestly, you need to hear this! It’s a must for any main room dancefloor.

The second track on the EP is called ‘Downpinpon’. It starts off a bit more relaxed than the previous track with some stabby rhodes chords and some airy strings. It sounds like it’s gonna be a pretty chilled tune then BANG, this almighty bass pattern kicks in and transforms the track into a mainroom stomper. Get this in your life now! I cannot wait to play this out. It’s HUGE!

Great release for Arcko Digital, out now!
