WEVAL - "Gimme Some"

New TracksadminComment

Netherlands electronic music duo WEVAL have a new EP on the way via Kompakt titled EASIER. "Gimmie Some" is one of the few cuts from it, and I'm loving the vibe here. The atmosphere surrounding the track is quite haunting, and the beat has a hypnotic, easygoing quality to it that you might find in most microhouse songs. The moaning vocal samples add to this quality as well. However, the strange skipping, guitar-like samples that play throughout much of the track have a sharp, ear-grabbing quality to them. These sounds bring an ear-tingling CRUNCH that makes it hard to just toss this track into the back of the mind. It's a subtle showstopper, I'd like to think.
