01: Lilyhammer
02: Comic Stripped 2014
As a producer, DJ and radio presenter, flick open the electronic music dictionary at 'triple threat' you'll find Ireland's Orla Feeney looking back at you. She's notably left her mark on the VANDIT discography on several previous occasions with enduring club rockers including 'Bittersweet', 'Pink Noise' and 'Two Faced'. Now she's back, flambéing the floor with two more! All aboard: next stop 'Lilyhammer'!
Like the cult Nordic TV series of the same name, 'Lilyhammer's tracks are cool, chilled and well collected… at the frontend! The further in you get though, the higher the fire rises.
The EP's title track sets the tone with supremely compressed beats, clipped percussion, slow-churn 303 and glacial, wonderland-like sub-melodies. Progressively Orla unfolds its huge, entrancing lead riff, setting it against live-sounding, thermally rising strings. As 'Lilyhammer's dark heart lightens, the track opens up and finally explodes into all-out uplift.
'Comic Stripped' is a canny reboot/rephrase of Orla's 2009 VANDIT debut 'Comic Strip'. 'Comic' by name, super-serious by nature, its jagged little electrosynths and hard-square waveforms bookend the drop's deep oceanic pads and irresistibly rhapsodic riffs.
Dimitri Kechagias review: We all know by now that Ireland is wonderful country with music heritage that lasts for centuries. Of course Ireland is famous for the trance djs and producers as well. Also Ireland adores trance and harder dance forms of electronic dance music. One of the hottest female dj coming from the land of culture and pure trance music is Orla Feeney. The legend Paul van Dyk has spotted her talent and has supported her in his globally known record label VANDIT records. If you missed the Teutonic trance beats of Orla you will be super glad to know that she is back and she service her top notch two tracks EP. First of all Lilyhammer is an absolute hammer of a track that will be supported heavily from the biggest names in the trance scene this summer because it includes all the right elements that can make thousands of party goes dance passionately. It's straight forward uplifting trancer that wins your admiration straight away. Solid bouncy beats, energetic driving razor sharp basslines and the most important is the long and atmospheric breakdown that starts with orchestral classical music themes along with more emotional melodies and slowly she reveals her main synthy lead that give you straight away smile as long as it hits from your ear to your brain. When the beat returns it will carry your senses on board for an energetic and highly pleasurable euphoric journey. If Lilyhammer was the bright side of the coin the other side is the harder one. Her classic VANDIT track Comic Stripped 2014 strikes back for an awesome mouthwatering version. If you are friend of chunky grooves, electro freaked out basslines and fantastic uplifting synths in the breakdown dont look any further cause you found this super sonic monster tune that is a mixture of breaks and 4x4 dance beats that has that edgy funky side. The colourful feel good breakdown is followed by heavily cranked and smashed in your face punchy drop that will blow many speakers for sure. This Girl Just Wanna Have Fun and we want to have fun with her selections & productions. #PureGold Love iT
