Santi.SSymbiotiK Chart June 2013

Swiss duo Psycho Weazel step in with some dance floor dynamite.

Léo Besso and Ivo Roxo's story is one of kinship; a tale of two friends spurring each other through an ever-ascending journey propelled by soft hearts and a magnetic, boisterous energy.

With hours stacking in the studio, Psycho Weazel defined their sound with the beautifully balanced 'boysdontcry'. This LP sought to give license to emotional expression whilst showcasing an important facet of their characters that extends beyond party starters and is more introspective and complex.

This balance is echoed across their latest outing for Exploited Club. 'Sueño Cálido' is equal parts heartfelt and mobile; club bangers with a cosy tinge perfect for warm summer dance floors.

The title track kicks things off with a deft counterbalance of power and poignancy. Nifty polyrhythms dance a syncopated shuffle under buttery synths that swell into humid plumes, while a boxing bass line tacks together a highly infectious groove. More melodies are gently folded in as emotion mounts, and a clever, free-flowing arrangement keeps the listener engaged, while a certain lo-fi quality wraps them in a homey blanket.

'Sueur' follows up with a slapping 909 drum track adorned with a bubbling organ and broad, colorful synth sweeps. Again, lively sequencing keeps the listener on their toes as drums are expertly dropped in and out, while melodies duck and weave across a bold, no-nonsense DJ tool.

'Body Alarm' brings things to a steamy close. Toms lead the charge here as they form the bones of a totally irresistible vibe, enhanced with carnival vocal cuts and sharp organ jabs. A wild breakdown unfolds as the energy stacks in layers, keeping the mood at boiling point until the very end.

You can&#8217;t hold a good thing down, and that&#8217;s exactly why the acclaimed Great Stuff Grooves series is back with another four hot slices of house and tech this month. Drawing on producers from across the world, it&#8217;s another feisty package. 

English talent Filthy Rich continues his fine run of form (see a recent contribution to Hot Creations&#8217; Hot Waves compilation) with the infectious Drop This. Drawing heavily on house heritage once again, he welds woozy organs to head-nodding skippy beats and a plump, acid house-tinged bassline. Those held string notes in the breakdown hark back to the mid-&#8216;90s, and highlight this track&#8217;s succinct blend of old and new.

Hungary&#8217;s Muzzaik were once known for their tribal and progressive grooves, but Face It is pumping straight-up house music through and through. Again, there&#8217;s a nod to a bygone era with diva vocal snippets, filtered disco loops and big cymbal hits, but it&#8217;s all brought bang up to date with their immense production prowess. The low end undulates wildly, with occasional Daft Punk-esque descending bassline fills, and the breaks build things up to giddy heights with huge snare builds and hypnotic synth motifs. A very large track indeed, and one for those who like their filtered funk with a little techy urgency.

Don&#8217;t be fooled by Deepdisco&#8217;s name - Put Your Sunglasses On is a pure twisted techno romp. A stomping, heavily-swung groove is what this track&#8217;s all about, with just a dash of tribalism thrown in. A delicate piano scale provides contrast in the breaks, while subtly growling synths and dissonant sounds do battle in the main sections. An absolute beast of a track, it combines heads-down funk with just the right amount of deft little flourishes.

Bongo Jack rounds off the package with PHNTM - the percussion he gets his name from lacing a sidewinder of a bassline and afro guitar licks. A huge disco loop is filtered into submission before finally revealing itself in glorious fashion, the urgent percussion driving things along potently. A rasping synth motif and more bongo rhythms complete the high-energy feel, with some huge builds taking the track to fever pitch.
