Yuli Fershtat, better known as BLT, presents us with a 3-track CD single in Iboga, after releasing his God is Love EP with them and some other tracks on Iboga compilations.
It starts with News, a good opener with a lot of presence. Very groovy and danceable, yet doesn’t follow any formula. The prolific collaboration with Danni Makov contributes a drummer’s perspective to the creative process which is felt throughout the track. Some of the sounds in this track seem pretty discordant at first. However, on a second and third listen everything comes together and those sounds are what makes it stand out. The journey continues with a remix to the grooviest BLT track- Space Boogie. BLT has proven himself as a remixer in the past, but how can you remix such a perfect track? What we get here is an updated version of Space Boogie- better sound, more cute noises and percussion layers, but the groove and melody stay the same- like it should be. Although the original track can still rock any dancefloor, the remix has been playing in Israel for a long time now, with a massive response from the crowd. Next is a remix for Antix- Free As We Are. Hypnotic percussion sounds, an extremely uplifting melody and a very fitting sample make this track ideal for playing in nature, during sunrise, thus creating a true trance experience. Too bad the track isn't longer. It could have been even better if the melody would have been developed. |
