Richard Dinsdale “Boom Boom” EP – Out Now.
Toolroom welcome back one of its favourite son’s…. Richard Dinsdale. Still riding high from the massive success of his debut artist album on ‘Leader’s Of The New School’, Richard has been busy grafting hard in the studio and clocking up the air miles, travelling to all four corners of the globe.
The ‘Boom Boom EP’ is an outstanding two track EP. Lead track ‘Boom Boom’ cleverly incorporates ingredients of multiple genres, both in and around the dance music spectrum. The track concentrates more on a deep and driving low-slung groove with massive sub-bass and a chanting vocal loop that embeds itself deep into your brain. The ever reliable D-Unity with whom Richard has co-produced on several occasions this year are on the remix duties, turning in a more techno influenced take on the original with a very quirky lead stab featuring heavily throughout the mix. Richard himself strips the track back to create the dub mix which is quite hypnotic and would be perfect for those big main room warm up sets.
Second track ‘Orthodox’ is more up-tempo with its samba rhythms and deep chords that pull you in and wrap you in rolling waves of sound, featuring cleverly placed church choir style vocals. With a tense, lengthy drop that prompts dance floor carnage when the bass rushes back in.
