REVIEW: Matt Fax - Swench / Last Touch / Halv out on Colorize


Responsible for some of the label's most iconic releases, Frenchman Matt Fax has rightfully earned his status as one of Colorize's leading artists. After a prolific period of Originals and Remixes, Matt returns to Colorize with his latest EP offering 'Swench, Last Touch, and Halv'.

'Swench' opens the EP and brings Matt Fax's beloved sound with a smooth, classically Progressive production grooving around building atmospherics, chugging melodies and Matt's trademark ear for engrossing soundscapes.

'Last Touch' reverts to a more nostalgic Matt Fax style, lush, rolling chords build into an epic climax surrounded by delicate cosmic FX & crisp pads to tie off a definitive Matt Fax record.

Finishing off the EP with 'Halv' Matt explores a moody, experimental sound which sees the Frenchman develop a slowly building journey of rippling chords, elegant bass stabs and intricate FX to finish the EP.

Matt Fax once again shows off his pioneering sound with an impressively diverse new EP 'Swench / Last Touch / Halv'.

 [content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Matt Fax is back on Colorize with a magnificent EP of three magical tracks that will fit perfectly any progressive need from house to trance and anything in between. Swench is an excellent uplifter with electro basslines, chunky grooves, cool vocal snippets and pleasurable sunkissed synthy melodies. Warm and tender the track builds towards its massive climax that ensures that nobody will be unaffected from its influence. Last Touch is energetic and pounding enough packed with wide variety of nice melodies and synthy plucks while the cool groove is there to move things forward while the breakdown is luscius  with piano melody that is simple and infectious straight away. Halv is the futuristic more spacey one with minimal grooves and cool danceable basslines along with darker moody synthy layers. 3 very immersive and highly impressive tunes to spice up your life!#PureGold Love It [/content]
