dj koze - the geklöppel continues 3

the first time i heard of this song was after i'd heard a mashup of dj koze's "the geklöppel continues" and suzanne vega's "tom's diner". it was certainly an effective track and i loved that bass and henceforth i had to have "the geklöppel continues". on the single there are three tracks and the other two are untitled but are informally called track 2 and 3 (digitally) or b1 and b2 (vinyl).

all three tracks on the ep is brilliant and chances are that i'd play the title track more in a djset but the real beauty is track 3. the whole track revolves around this loop that sounds like it may have been taken from some old swing or jazz record. it's very fuzzy and crackled but it's done in a rather smooth way. the sequence is accentuated with trumpets, keys, vibraphones and synthy touches.

as this is stefan kozalla aka dj koze we are talking about, one would know that he isn't just an expert at making killer house and techno grooves. he's also brilliant at bringing out the bottom end and a lovely thick bed of bass is also present in this track. the pure brilliance of this one is the combination of the tweaked out jazz sounds and the heavy low frequencies.
