Drumcode favourite Bart Skils kickstarts the new year with his sixth EP for the label Bark Skils opens new year's season with his 6th hard hitting EP released on Drumcode

Since his debut on Drumcode in 2012, Bart Skils has been one of the label’s most regular contributors, with the Dutchman’s brand of functional, hook-driven techno a go-to weapon for Adam Beyer; from his stellar ‘Shadowprint’ EP in 2014, to last year’s classy remix of Moby’s ‘Go’. One of The Netherland’s hardest working ambassadors for techno, he is the organiser of the beloved Voltt Love Summer Festival that’s has been a favourite of Beyer’s for many years. 

His latest work for Drumcode, ‘Bells of the Revolution’ continues his impeccable reputation for quality with everything he does, with four cuts all with their own distinct storyline. The title track is characterised by dark driving grooves and bubbling acid line that slowly evolves into a lush melodic riff. ‘Ocean Drive’ nose-dives into deeper techno territory, while maintaining a sense of exquisite tension throughout. ‘Vocalized’ follows, a stomping acid techno cut that slides into the deep courtesy of skilfully programmed vox and elegant licks of melody. The EP concludes with ‘Retrodade’, a track that’s been one of the biggest in Beyer’s sets in 2017 and features the famous vocal from Rozalla’s ‘Everybody’s Free’. The sample was used with kind permission from the iconic ‘90s singer.

Bart Skils - Vocalized - Drumcode - DC184

A party animal from the early 90s where I experienced the beginnings of the entire house scene, regular visitor to Belgian house temples where I also worked and then of course skim the great after parties to let myself be carried away by the hypnotic tones and great trance music. After house and trance I slowly started to get a huge appreciation for the more harder music styles like hardstyle, hardtrance, hardbass and than suddenly there was hardtechno! God I like the beats of techno  the industrial sounds, the rhythm and the whole scene. So if you think that if you're over 50 you should act 'normal'....I don't think so ;-)  A few months ago I heard a set by Kiki Solvej and I was instant a big big fan. Wow what a talent, she takes techno to a higher and very special unique level...you go girl BTW I'm so glad that so many female DJ's finally have an equal place in the whole scene

just press play
