DIGITAL BLUS 005 - SINISTARR - SOMETHING`S WORKING EP

DIGIBLUS005 – Something’s Working EP

Remember when High Contrast burst upon the drum ‘n bass scene, rampaging every radio station and mix with his magnificent True Colours album on Hospital Recordings? Most would agree that this was High Contrast’s first milestone to superstardom as well as a major milestone for liquid. It’s now seven years since that epic album, and a new face, Jeremy Howard (A.K.A. Sinistarr) has recreated this vibe of ultimate craftsmanship. Noticed around the globe for his majestic forte by the likes of Fabio, Bailey, DJ Hype and LTJ Bukem, Sinistarr’s future is looking bright with releases upcoming on Creative Source, Influence, Offshore, and of course, Digital Blus.

Colli Park:

Acoustic guitar riffs play a big part in this track. As the melody sweeps on, a laid back chord progression and bassline make this the perfect track to chill to. A bit repetitive at times, but when you’ve got a crowd on their feet dancin’ the dance, who’s going to notice? This is good music. Period.

Harlem Joys:

The funk and soul that trademarks Blu Saphir is definitely a major player here! Vibrant pad progressions and snappy drums move this track forward atop a catchy piano hook. This is one of Blu Saphir’s most versatile tracks, in my opinion. Many switch-ups throughout the track will keep the listener drawn in. There’s no mistake that this EP will be a hit!

Something’s Working:

As my favorite track on this EP, Something’s Working is definitely a tune of great taste and incredible talent. Warm pads lay on the atmospheres while the drums remain steady throughout. The atmospherics are absolutely fantastic and give this tune depth that just seems to increase as the seconds tick by. This track has got to be one of the best I’ve heard this year. Look out for Sinistarr this year.

Avian Jazz Remix:

I was pretty surprised when I found out that the remix of Avian Jazz would be out on this label. The boy from Detroit layers on the sounds, featuring a harder genesis, techy squelches and more emphasis on the bassline. Superb!
