California native Mike EFEX is no stranger to regular Coldharbour followers, and he makes a welcome return to the label with a track primed for those dark and dirty moments late into the night, entitled Machine City.
Debuted on a passionate Global DJ Broadcast World Tour recording night in Buenos Aires by label owner Markus Schulz, Machine City exemplifies his shift in mood, as the peak hour highs descend into the weird and fascinating rabbit hole.
Combined with hypnotic percussion, Mike's signature brooding melody shines through during the break, and is easy to sew why Machine City became a listener favorite at an early stage. It will be an ever present in the long club nights for many months to come.
Dimitri Kechagias review: Coldharbour recordings continues to be after so many years equally groundbreaking and always way ahead of its time. Coldharbour recordings continues to remain deeply underground and rooted on their mission for music that matters without being slaves on the download portal sales. Mike EFEX is one of those artists who keeps his music dark, moody, haunting and extremely powerful. His music is perfectly placed within the Coldharbour recordings microcosm with latest release his fantastic Machine City. Deep dark pounding haunting basslines that drive ahead the proceedings along with old school drum programming with some acid overtones recalling techno anthems from the past. His breakdown starts with emotional female heavenly vocals followed from the revelation of the massive epic dark, twisted and distorted synthy hook that will definitely have a positive effect on you. His climax continues on the same dark haunting style but swirling synthy hook is added on top that creates that feeling of urgency and charge your adrenaline elevels straight away. It keeps the dark underground and techy without going into the obvious uplifting climax by providing one of his accomplished works so far in his career. #PureGold Love iT
