Releases MayDan – Away / Burn Cloud [Beat Boutique] By Release Promo Posted on 2nd June 2018 0 second read 0 0 Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Share on Reddit Share on Linkedin DJ Zombi’s Beat Boutique returns this week welcoming MayDan to the label for his debut EP. The Israeli artist and Asymmetric Recordings A&R has been hotly tipped this year, highlighted by his ‘White Gold’ single on Hernan Cattaneo’s Sudbeat Music. Similarly Beat Boutique has been a label on the rise so it’s no surprise to see the two parties connect here. MayDan’s debut for the label is entitled ‘Away / Burn Cloud’ and comes alongside remixes from Murat Uncuoglu and Michael A. The release begins with ‘Away’ which immediately sets an electric, impactful tone. Razor sharp synths add a rugged vibe while a floor friendly groove chugs along the foundation. For as intense as it is there are emotive moments, both from the main break, which delivers a serene atmospheric vibe to the third act where a poignant arp rises to prominence to complete the journey. The companion piece ‘Burn Cloud’ has an equally powerful vibe which begins with a similarly rugged, dominating groove. The main break proves to be the most captivating however, a story within a story if you will as symphonic designs build a subtle tension before melting down to a bad of electronics and wave of while noise, which summons the groove for a chugging finale. Having followed MayDan’s music for a while i’d say these are easily his best productions to date, looking forward to hear what comes next. The lone interpretation of ‘Away’ is provided by Murat Uncuoglu who is making his label debut. The Turkish veteran has been hyped of late with one of his newest originals getting considerable play from Dixon, Ame and Frankey & Sandrino. Here he puts his own unique twist on ‘Away’, taking it into peak time territory. The tempo shifts up but the tremendous groove of the original is not lost in the process. Warm and spacious the low end carries considerable swing and presence, leading to a dramatic and perfectly executed break where vocoded vocals set the stage for a classy drop. The release concludes with Michael A providing the lone interpretation of ‘Burn Cloud’. The Belarus based artist and Genesis Music label boss is returning to the label for his third appearance. Also owning releases on Hernan Cattaneo’s Sudbeat Music and Cid Inc’s Replug Records, Michael keeps that momentum going with a stellar rendition of ‘Burn Cloud’. Staying true to the main theme, the Genesis boss works it over more of a pure progressive groove. Rhythmically it sounds perfect for Hernan Cattaneo with it’s undulating foundation and intricate percussive core. Two breaks add all the tension you could hope for with perfectly executed builds and energy transfers, ultimately leading to a spaced out third act. A brilliant remix from Michael which rounds out another excellent offering from DJ Zombi’s Beat Boutique.
