REVIEW: Andrew Bayer - Gaff's Eulogy on Anjunadeep



1-Original mix
2-Ryan Davis Interpretation
 

Release Date: 17th December 2012
 
Originally appearing as the closing track on James Grant's "Anjunadeep 04 CD", Andrew Bayer's "Gaff's Eulogy" also represents the first single from his much anticipated second artist album "If It Were You, We'd Never Leave".
 
With his first album "It's Artificial" described by Mixmag as "an incredible album of sophisticated electronica", "If It Were You, We'd Never Leave" takes a more personal and contemplative approach.
 
A cinematic electronica journey full of emotion and drama, Andrew Bayer's "Gaff's Eulogy" blends woozy, glitched out textures with sonic warmth and the intricate musicality that he is renowned for.
 
Counting names like Sasha, Stephan Bodzin and Ivan Smagghe among his supporters, Berlin based Ryan Davis steps up for remix duties on this release having released his own celebrated artist album on Traum earlier in the year in the aptly titled "Particles Of Bliss".
Taking a deep and intricate approach, Davis reshapes the emotive textures of the original into a blissful melodic techno epic.
 
 
 
Dimitri Kechagias review: Andrew Bayer is back on Anjunadeep with the exceptional single Gaff's Eulogy. Once again we get a taste of eclectic electronic music of the finest variety. Relaxing laid back lounge style track with chunky breaks, great drum programming that keep your breathless, mesmerising colourful melodies, luscious magical atmosphere and warm sweet melodies perfect to listen at home while you drink your fruity tea with apple and cinnamon. Cinematic dreamy travelling and inspiring is a very touching piece of music that elevate our innerself a little bit higher out of the ordinary that kills creativity. Equally high quality is the deep tech house rework by  Ryan Davis who turns the chilly original into a danceable piece of electronica with great techy beats, trancy basslines that drive the whole track forward towards its unknown destination and melodies that create that cinematic atmosphere that tells the story for the listener. Its the finest piece to start your dj set with and build it towards its epic crescendo. Highy recommended. Love IT!
