Currently being played to death by the likes of Dave Clarke, one listen to
'Tanga' and you'll know why. Starting off with huge bass kicks and
percussive sounds, this track just keeps on building and building. As more
drum sounds and percussive elements are added, the groove continues to
grow until the harsh industrial lead sounds come in. The filters help with the
breakdown before it all kicks back in towards the climax. This is the sort
of track that will genuinely tear roofs off in clubs where they like their
techno hard.
The tracks on the B-side are essentially restructured mixes of the same
tune. 'Taanga' in particular is very similar to the main cut but has much
sharper hi-hat and cymbols running though it and has a simpler structure.
You could argue that it's a more 'obvious' techno cut but that may be
doing it a dis-service. 'Tangga' is excellent however - no 4/4 beats, just tough
bassy sounds and continually building percussion. Very reminiscent of some
Dutch and German techno from the early 90's. There's no doubting though
that this is an excellent release and it will continue to rock harder
dancefloors throughout the summer.
