Perikon by TH;EN
With 'Perikon' we welcome back German / Canadian duo TH;EN to the label. With successful releases on Mango Alley and Manual in recent history the duos latest outing on ICONYC follows on seamlessly from where they left off with 'Emery' in October of last year. 'Perikon' kicks things off nicely with its forlorn moodiness shining through, as we stroll effortlessly through club inspired melodies, while the sweltering chords sit wonderfully on top adding an extra layer of depth. The track continues to build on an unyielding foundation of deep percussive grooves and bass-lines. 'Perikon' is a skillful piece of music that highlights the duos palpable talents.
The first remix comes courtesy of London based Betoko known for his polished and sophisticated sound profiling, who keeps the ethereal theme of the original alive, as the pulsating bass powers along, before its drum fills and general warmth all combine to do the talking. Like something from yesteryear, yet sounding fresh and upfront. This transcendent touch up takes the energy levels up a notch, increases the élan with stripped back and lucid elements, before the luscious pads change the vibe and create a blanket of balminess that wraps around the accomplished groove. 'Essential stuff'!
Ballroom head honcho and all-round nice guy Kaiser Souzai, who is famed for his stylish and refined productions created a rework full of tension from the word go. The introduced atmospheric vibe intelligently keeps you moving with warm dynamic sounds, a smooth driving edge and fine percussive fragments. We basically have the formula for a bit of a monumental outing. It's all about the energetic groove and cool club vibes that are working their magic around Kaiser Souzai's wonderfully arranged interpretation that creates an irresistible sequence while taking the mind on a trip.
TH;EN's 'Perikon' is a true dance-floor mammoth, in every sense of the word. Another essential release from ICONYC aimed straight at the soul, be ready to dance to it! 'Perikon' will see a worldwide release on April 29th, 2019. Miss this at your peril!!
