Apparently, German DJ / producer Noëtik has a busy schedule, because he doesn’t waste a damn second on his Parhelion EP.
I mean, he claims to have “Bad Intentions” on the opening track, but the intentions are to get you to dance and move wherever you are and with whatever you’re doing. Maybe his bad intention is mischievous glee in knowing that you’re going to be bopping around your kitchen, racing through the grocery store, or getting through your spinning workout in half the normal time. The bubbling bass and slight dub effects, along with the relentless beats, might cause a rave to break out at any second.
The bass on “Sparsity” is slightly subdued, with a bit of a fuzzy edge, but it is no less addictive. Beats seem to reverse back on each other and return like a boomerang whacking you upside the head. The industrial touches (metallic percussion) on “Ariko” are outstanding. It wanders into dark house territory and walks around the monster mash rave like it owns the place.
“Trivium” pumps the brakes on the tempo and turns that monster rave into a vampire after-party. The track drifts in and out of shadowy places and has a sexy danger to it. The EP ends with a remix of “Bad Intentions” by Modēm that is somehow faster than the original.
In short, this is one of the best EDM records I’ve heard so far this year. Any DJ could just play this whole thing and use the time to hydrate and eat a protein bar during a set.
Keep your mind open.
