Neon by 360, Patrice Baumel, Nuno Dos Santos
After the superb success of the labels last EP, Stimming's 'Gaensebluemchen', Edwin Oosterwal and Joris Voorn's Green imprint returns with yet another stunning release. As with their own productions, the label heads, with all of their releases, strive to deliver music of only the highest quality. Clear, clean and sonically perfect sounds are a priority, and with Green, each release must have a real depth of feeling and emotion.
Not the easiest of checklists to live up to. However, today's artists have done just that. 360 is alias of Dutch duo, Nuno dos Santos and Patrice Baumel. Nuno is best known for his wonderful releases on Compost, Compost Black and Manual Music. His brand of deep, lush, cosmic house has won him a legion of fans across the globe.
Patrice's releases and remixes for Get Physical Music, K7, Systematic Recordings, Bloop and Dirt Crew have won him critical acclaim, as have his highly successful Trapez releases, 2005's 'Mutant Pop' and '07's 'Just Electricity'.
Having joined forces to create the 360 Soundsystem, a live act that allows them to create sophisticated night-long trips for their audience using sound FX, loops and of course killer records, as demonstrated at their 360 residency at Trouw Amsterdam. It was only a matter of time before the duo locked themselves away in the studio to produce some music ...
The reward from those sessions are here for you today in the shape of 'Neon'. A more perfectly suited Green release you will not find. As with their live sets, 360 have turned out two beautifully sophisticated house cuts. Deep, warm, uplifting, an infused with that extra touch of Dutch magic, both cuts are set to rule the darkest of basements and the largest of arenas for some time to come.
