Feb 16th 2009 - EP "Only In The Hall" [Digital] - Quimika rec.
(Includes Original Mix, Smoke Dub Mix & Federico Giust Remix)
Some Feedbacks:
Review @ progressivehouse.com
Quimika Records is a South American label that made great strides in 2008. Releases and productions from the likes of Thee-O, Lee Pennington, and Federico Giust received good reactions worldwide. House, tech and progressive with a touch of breaks thrown in was the winning the formula. 2009 kicks off for the Quimika camp with Vitas Merkel providing two mixes of "Only In the Hall," joined by label head Federico Guist, chipping in with his interpretation to round things off.
The original is a squeaky house number that the likes of Danny Tenaglia, Hernan Cattaneo and Steve Lawler would champion no doubt. A twisted vocal sample and rumbling bassline give the track an evil persona.
The second mix, the Smoke Dub sounds like something that Slam and Soma crew would thrive on. This mix is slightly slower in pace than the original, but still retains some of the key original components. A very very cool underground track is on show here.
Completing the trio of mixes is the Federico Giust remix. This is a pounding mix, something akin to a Dave Clarke set of the 1990s. Relentless and no less evil than the two other mixes, Giust filters in kicks and snares at will. A nice 3rd mix to the set.
If you are looking for melodies and strings, this isn't for you, but if are looking for twisted, pounding house muzik look no further than this release from Quimika.
