inverse cinematics - sundrops

i think i discovered this one when it came out in '08 and this track just struck a chord with me. it was some element that reminded me of some other tune and i liked it a lot. inverse cinematics was a new name for me at the time even though i'd head "detroit jazzin'" once or twice as that was a quite a big tune.

this track has a moody intro but picks up tempo and some vibrancy from the get-go and the result is a swinging broken beat cut. the drums and percussion are the main course and they really worked on the groove which makes this prime dancefloor material.

it has some nice melodic touches and the usual rhodes noodlings but as per usual for a dancefloor tune it does have some great bass. and it was that bassline which eventually made me figure out where they borrowed influence from.

it was from the rima (domu & volcov) remix of koop's "bright nights". this track is also a favourite of mine and it's from the remix lp of the "waltz for koop" album. amongst the many great versions (including my one of my all time favourite tracks, being the markus enochson remix of "summer sun") was this dubby late night kind of houser.

it rocked that king of shuffle which king britt would employ in many of his tunes and was the middle thing between house and broken beats. this is a track that also is very useful in a dj's hands as it's versatility makes it excellent to transition or to work it as a peak thing as that break is epic.
