Drug Chug / Shone

DJ Rocca & Chris Massey

El Diablo's Social Club
EDSC003 | 2014-06-13  
Starting off 2014 with an Italian / Manchester collaboration, the third release on El Diablos Social Club sees DJ Rocca (Ajello, Erodiscotheque, Crimea X) & Chris Massey (Electric Elephant, Paper Recordings) join forces to bring us a selection of spaced-out, chuggy goodness with just a bit of a nod to certain Croatian festivals. "Drug Chug" kicks things off with a plodding 4/4 infused with cosmicesque swooshes and whooshes along with a bassline to rattle the Funktion Ones whilst synths reminiscent of The Time And Space Machine add that much needed touch of psych to proceedings.

"Shone" takes the party to late night in the club where spiky 909 percussion meets chunky analog basslines before dropping in with distorted and reverb drenched piano chords that guarantee to leave a lasting impression on both the head and heart!

Remix duties come in heavy on this release with Craig Bratley dusting "Drug Chug" with his own style of studio fairy dust to knock it up a notch that will surely please those who have followed his sounds on Andrew Weatherall's Bird Scarer imprint, Robsoul, Foto, Is It Balearic, Instruments Of Rapture and his own Magic Feet label.

Lastly EDSC's very own head honcho Neil Diablo tackles "Shone" laying off the epic-ness and brings a straight up basement chugger!

This release has grit and oomph balanced with a good helping of sunshine infused warmth that will ensure its place in the boxes of both house heads and Balearic peeps all over!
