Surefire purveyors of feelgood moments on the dance floor, Berlin-based outfit Kon Faber punch in on A Tribe Called Kotori with their very first transmission, 'Vortex'. Indeed a vortical maelstrom of rousing grooves and changing atmospheres, this two-tracker serves up the same montage of deadeye buildup construction and vibrational tune-making that's made the duo a favourite of ours. Tried and tested on the road for the past couple of years - while triggering off massive response along the way, both cuts bear the inimitable trademark of Kon Faber and showcase their taste for live-played music, with the final studio arrangement of 'Vortex' being actually taken from a live recording. A twofold palette of "energetic peaktime tracks, with a clear leading synth, punchy drums, while still adding plenty of organic details", 'Vortex' finds Kon Faber at their most convincingly precise yet soothingly soulful. Built around a melody created using their beloved Hydrasynth, the title-track unfolds as a steadfast big-room roller, "pulling you deeper and deeper into the vibe, until there's no escape". Engineering a solid mix of cascading arpeggios, stinging synth shards and intricate drum programming to boot, it throbs and morphs with every bar, making it a trusty companion anytime you need to crank the energy levels one or two notches up. A further syncopation-heavy piece of electroid boogie, 'Elevate' "keeps on raising the mood with its housy drums and clear chord pattern", channeling the whole of its punch towards a slaying, hair-raising drop. Flush with vibrant deep house-y tropes mounted onto an all-road EBM chassis, this one is a testimony to Kon Faber's ever potent and dazzling floor vocab.

Slicks brings dance music that gets in your head as much as your feet.

His sound evolved from early influences in rock and metal, particularly Pink Floyd and Opeth, into something uniquely his own.

His musical approach stems from a deep appreciation for energy control and storytelling through sound, where melancholic melodies and detailed percussion work meet moments of pure emotion.
