PREMIERE: Teenage Mutants & Heerhorst – Jour (Original Mix) [Stil Vor Talent] Teenage Mutants sets sail in a new journey into deep tech, shaping up a mosaic comprising of five original tracks. Palais kicks off proceedings with a revving lead and ascending melody. The journey theme becomes evident from the outset, as the track marches along, gradually building up into an upbeat construction. Dub vibes aplenty come about in Couer, as tribal drums create a heavy-hitting yet pensive start.

With the help of an initial heavy kick drum doubled by percussive elements and an electricity-tinged lead, it conveys an intense ambiance. A male vocal chanting French lyrics kicks in, ultimately unveiling the reason for the overall morose mood: its all centered around love. Opera i Read More
