............................
Few producers can match the meteoric rise of Kastis Torrau and
as the Lithuanian producer returns to Proton Music, Route 88
opens up with remixes from Belarusian and Dutch stars.
An artist with a 24-carat reputation plus skills and technique
to match, Kastis Torrau has been at the cutting edge of
underground dance music since he burst onto the scene with
Donatello and Arnas D in 2011 triumphant in the Sasha remix
competition for Cut Me Down. A subsequent appearance on Last
Night On Earth rubber-stamped Torrau's global status as 'rising
star', while a string of productions found their way on to
Einmusika, Hope Recordings and Black Hole. A regular on Proton
Music since August 2014, Genesis in collaboration with fellow
countryman, Donatello, saw subsequent A-list remixes from Barry
Jamieson and Darin Epsilon. Now returning, Route 88 is
characterised by a typically bristling bassline that drives the
track relentlessly forward, wrapped around an immaculate and
crisp rhythmic shell. Sublime melodic flourishes ripple across
the stereo spectrum, building in the breakdown to introduce an
exquisite counterpoint phrase before rhythm and bass hit hard
again in the third movement.
A true star across his Belarusian home and far beyond its
borders, Dmitry Molosh has seen his career skyrocket with his
performances across Europe and South America in August 2019.
Seeing his music feature on such illustrious labels as Replug,
Sudbeat and Plattenbank, supported by such household names as
Nick Warren, Guy J and Hernan Cattaneo, he featured on Particles
with both original and remix production work in 2014 and '15.
Making his Proton Music debut and reinventing Kastis Torrau, the
Dmitry Molosh remix opens with a chest-thumping kick before
reprising the bassline so central the original. Before long, a
swathe of new production material appears that introduces new
melodic structures and phrases that reach their zenith at the
breakdown with beautiful piano notes and sumptuous pad textures.
Hitting its stride in the third movement, all elements combine
to create a wonderful new Route 88.
Always in demand with their imaginative work for the likes of
EIN2, Traum and Mango Alley, Huminal's relationship with
Particles and Proton Music has seen the Dutch duo feature with a
host of original music. After a debut remixing Nikko.Z in June
2015, the twin-track Knocking on the Sky followed before We
Dwell in the Past arrived with a bang a year later and Macropsia
came into view in October 2018. Always at the cutting edge of
sound design, The Huminal remix is as immaculate as it is
elegant with a raft of intelligent production techniques that
sees Route 88 build with trademark momentum across the
seven-minute track. A filtered and gated analogue bass pattern
rises and falls throughout while a gloriously produced breakdown
sequence ripples with a new melodic sequence that gently
pulsates. Rhythmic and melodic groove then join forces again in
the second half to devastating effect.
With a beautifully smooth and powerful track, Kastis Torrau
drives effortlessly along Route 88 with remixes from Dmitry
Molosh and Huminal.
