Tom Szirtes, aka Shur-i-kan, has built a stellar reputation over the years with his albums on the excellent Freerange Records, along with releases on his own Dark Energy records. We’ve long been a fan of his music, and when Tom Middleton introduced him to us and we heard “My Love” for the first time we knew we were on to a winner.
At the darker end of his musical spectrum, “My Love” has all the hallmarks of an Anjunadeep classic; brooding strings, an emotive vocal refrain and one hell of a bassline. A complete dancefloor weapon, tipped by Radio 1’s Danny Howard as an Ibiza anthem in the making.
“Feel Free” channels a similarly moody vibe, with Christina Coronel’s trippy vocals rising over brooding groove and spacey techno atmospherics.
The latest drum & bass wonderkid to come from the Hospital Records stable, Keeno works wonders on his remix of “My Love”, taking the staccato bassline and building an monster of a tune around it, packed with soulful melodies and epic breakdowns.
Dimitri Kechagias review: Anjunadeep is all about quality house music and until now the label serves its mission very impressive with army of supporters that encourage them to continue on the same uncompromising directions and bring to the surface for a wider audience top artists like Shur-i-kan. His fantastic EP includes two very different tracks that promise to travel your mind and soul to faraway places straight away. First of all My Love is a mesmerising deep house beauty with acid overtones, hi-nrg basslines and superb tech house throbbing groove. On the top cinematic strings and colourful synths are added to create the amazing mysterious atmosphere. The soulful house diva early 90's vocal sample makes instantly the difference and the whole result is absolutely mouthwatering. Hypnotic, danceable and exciting music that refreshes your senses and brings to your mind hot steamy nights in London Underground club scene. Second track is the stunning Feel Free featuring the singer Christina Coronel on vocals. The track builds its own spacey soundscape with emotional strings, sensitive colourful synths, hypnotic driving basslines and pulsating techy tribalish groove. The atmosphere is magnificent and you feel totally at home. Mysterious magical out of this world sounds arranged in a such way that will be hard not to start tapping your feet, nodding your head and slowly abandon all the inhibitions and start dancing freely around. The Keeno remix will surprise many as it transforms Feel Free into an energetic spacey liquid like drum n bass version that creates in your mind that sense of the absolute freedom that you can feel only on the dancefloor surrounded by like minded people that care not on how you look like or your smart phone but mainly for the music. #PureGold Love It
