Our first out and out concept EP is by none other than Evan Scott. His inspiration is the martial arts genre and his utilization is uncanny.
Not unlike its name, "Tiger" is deep and regal. Both syncopated rhythms and rolling bass make the mind dance as much as the body. Graceful melodies and meticulous arrangement cement "Tiger" as a masterpiece.
"Crane" is a lush, mental soundscape that fights as much as it sooths. Spooky and menacing, "Crane" and it's dark, minimal composition hints at the Kung Fu stylings that originally inspired it. Although it was released as a single for Race Car Productions presents Volume 1, Evan Scott has fine tuned the original to that of a science, even more haunting and mesmerizing than the original.
With a constant warbling bassline and the sounds of Kung Fu, "Leopard" is equally capable of controlling a techno or house audience. Persistent yet funky percussion fuel "Leopard" straight to the dancefloor and well into the night.
Ominous and glitchy, "Snake" lives and breathes the late night. Funky but mental, "Snake" is venomous on and off the dancefloor with a bassline that is sure to move crowds.
With driving rhythms, "Dragon" is not only filled with a menacing and snarling fury but also a certain playfulness. Mesmerizing synths and tribal drums make this a sure-fire anthem for late summer.
Finally, Outputmessage, from Ghostly International and Melodic, offers an awe-inspiring remix of "Crane" that is more musically driven than the original as well as epic. With orchestral buildups and mathematical, glitchy percussion, the Outputmessage remix cements its place in techno and beyond. This is the future.
