DJ support on this one has come by selected artists such as Panacea, Masheen, Identity, Pyro, Phono, Flame, and also by the Tilt-Recordings DJs themselves: Bad Boy Kaiza, DJ Hektik, Budoka and DJ Malice. amex + Kaiza - "Steam" Kaiza and his studio partner amex, Germany's first address for Techno-DNB, have combined their Techno approach with a conceptual theme to a piece of art far beyond the question of dancefloor suitability. "Steam" works well on the dancefloor but it is way more than just a DJ-tool: the whole tune is based on a train on it's tracks both conceptually and sound wise. This theme is used consequently and throughout the entire tune, even the title originates from the impression of a steam locomotive... Intro, breaks, main part and outro play with it, also the lead sounds, stabs and percussion constructions are mainly crafted out of train sounds. The intro is set in a train station: a steam train sets off and becomes faster with it's machine sounds being transformed into a Drum & Bass beat. After a bridge in which you accoustically follow the train on it's tracks, the tune drops with a "breathing midline" (Raiden). In the main part there are several minibreaks and each time, the lead sounds change and the energy level increases until the tune resembles a rushing High Speed Train. The unexpected, sudden and disturbing breakdown literally pushes you into nowhere, making you either laugh or cry - but before you even have time to reflect on what's just happened, the train runs again and the journey continues: "Steam" returns to the breathing midline and again goes full speed, before it finally starts to slow down and the locomotive eventually arrives at it's destination. Budoka - "Pleasure Ride" Darmstadt's finest, who is responsible for T!LT#001 and TILT002 as well as for tunes on TILT004 and TILT005, comes correct with a new generation of neurofunk rollers in his very own style and trademark sound, yet with improved production techniques. The short intro of "Pleasure Ride" builds up the athmo with strings and filtered beat layers, then the drop comes quite directly, and the tune does it with an unusually organic, juicy midrange / bass combination and distinctive percussion works behind the surface of the beat. With this tune, Budoka brings the realisation of his ideas to a higher level and keeps establishing his name in the world of Drum & Bass. * next release on Tilt-Recordings: * * TILT007 [A] Johannes Ahlberg - "Pitch The Nature" (amex + Kaiza RMX) * * [B] amex + Kaiza - "Shrinz" (Quadrant RMX) * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * A:\TILT\RELEASES\TILT006>format c:
