Swiss label Cadenza have been living up to their unrivalled reputation
as one of the strongest electronic music labels out there having already
released nine solo EPs from long time Cadenza artists and exciting new
family members since January this year.
Striking while the irons hot they now announce Cadenza70 from Italian
duo Robytek vs Shield with the Way Of Life EP.
Meeting minds for Way Of Life, Italian Rebirth Records owner Shield and
veteran producer Robytek fuse their individual virtues to create a two
piece cut with a twist.
No strangers to working together, Robytek and Shield have a cemented
collaboration history with three notable releases under their belt to date.
Way Of Life opens with Rendez-Vous and an immediately arresting piano
chord groove that sets the scene.
With a firm nod to classic elements, the rounded keys sit against vacuum
closed hats and ricocheting tambourines denoting a timeless house feel
that continues until Rendez-Vouss end.
Pushing forward the bass line captivates with demure beauty; warm,
prowling and confident it binds the sexy female vocal and tinkering
scattered synths.
Whilst Rendez-Vous may harbour that raw old school sound, its fiercely
modern in its production excellence and building arrangement.
On the B-side our Italian duo present EP title track Way Of Life.
Contrastingly different to its predecessor, Way Of Life dives head first
into wriggling percussion rhythms and twanging guitar riffs.
Undoubtedly the absolute floor smasher of the two it builds, breaks and
thunders for those irreplaceable late night moments on the dance floor when
we are completely lost in the music.
More than just a peak time dance track though, Way Of Life explores jazzy
saxophone swoons, exceptional live drum sections and swooshing beds to
round out a mature and forward thinking house killer.
As an extra surprise, the Way of Life EP boasts digital bonus track
Journey Of Hope with an added Instrumental version.
Rich and bassy with a diverging xylophone melody, Journey Of Hope spits
with its trill Latino vocal section before a relentless appargiated synth
comes through to drive the track into some serious depth and stomping
territory.
Climbing and dropping with a head strong punch - Journey Of Hope is not
for the faint hearted and closes a thoroughly diverse EP.
