fc/kahuna - microcuts

i picked up fc kahuna's "machine says yes" album a while ago and i did what i usually do when i take home a new piece of music. i skim through the tracks to asses if it's anything i can work in a mix or if it's a listening thing completely. i already knew some of the tracks and knew that there was going to be prime beats on it.

this one i almost thought it was going to be hiphop thing from the beginning, don't ask me how i came to that conclusion. but then the italo like melody came in and later a four on the floor came romping in, there was no doubt in my mind.

this was one of those album gems that's under the radar that could have an impact as long as the right person picks it up and works it again. i'm not saying that would be me but i will be working it. i love sort of mesh between the italo, the neo-electro and the bumping house groove.

you also have a stunning live bass is rumbling under neath and there is a whole deal of attention to detail. there is a number of small breaks that culminates with effects & filters and one goes into this double beat right before kicking in strong.

the melody sequence is also really hypnotic, it draws you in, well that has to be the reason since i've listened to this a few times in a row now and wants to be heard again. lovely track really. support and bang it out
