ANODYNE006 - Hooves - Misfit / Merlin - 17th Feb

Post by meltdown »

Representing Australia and New Zealand, DJ Meltdown’s Anodyne Audio label smashes its way into 2014 with some brand new music from Hooves. The label focuses on bringing quality from both established and up and coming names, and following releases from Dose, Andy Pain, Mob Tactics and more, now moves through with two amazing tracks from the one Hooves. Hooves has made his name as DJ, producer, drummer and sound engineer, and as well as a slew of releases, also played live drums with New Zealand Shapeshifter. Quite a CV to bring to Anodyne, and you’ll soon realise why when you hear these two beauties.

BTK “Funky beats! Feeling this release! :)
Chris SU “Cool stuff!”
Shortee “Tight production, good quality, will be looking for more from this label.”

Merlin is as awe-inspiring and mystical as its name suggests, with a bouncing, electronic melody starting off, highlighting some amazing sound design before the delayed drop takes you far, far beyond this planet. Part space-age, part pure dancefloor moodiness, this one is different from your average d&b production. Establishing itself, the tune opens windows onto a variety of sounds, from the stinging kicks to the otherworldly synths. A track which really will appeal to a wide range of listeners, this one’ll help further cement not only Hooves’, but also Anodyne’s reputation as a label of some serious quality.

Misfit, meanwhile, is equally as spellbinding, rocking blocks from here to Auckland and back. Warped bass predominates, with more fiercely engineered drums. Creating worlds out of sound is Hooves’ speciality, as is moving the crowd. He takes no prisoners on Misfit, ripping through the space-time continuum with future d&b from the year 3014. The track lifts to a drop which’ll tear faces off wherever it gets played. Get ready, your impending doom is right here.
This year is set to be a massive one for Anodyne, so prepare for a stack of quality releases from the label. Set phasers to stun, and speakers to shake.

Support: BTK, Drumsound, Ruffstuff, Chris SU, Shortee, Chef, Stealth, AK1200, Cabbie, RV, VLTRN, Magical Gravity, Mufler, Hoodlum, Slum Dogz, Savage Rehab, Tony Anthem, Q-Bik, Dawn Raid and more!
