Alex Santer - Tribal Selonika EP

About.com Rating 4

From

Greece’s Alex Santer steps forward with a moving arrangement of tribal and progressive sounds. The progressive elements here can be appreciated outside of the genre as Santer takes things in a slightly different direction. I’m loving both sides of this one as it’s got a little bit of house, a little bit of techno and so much more.

A. “Anadisis”

This groovy percussion arrangement has all of the atmosphere and substance that one could wish for in a tribal tune. On top we have a strong operatic vocal while down below is the deep dark collection of beats, bass, and blistering sound.
The arrangement is straightforward with subtle builds and drops that keep things progressing while holding strong to the overall attitude of this piece.

AA. “Astra”

“Astra” is a little more on the house end than its counterpart “Anadisis” by incorporating a chunky house groove under swells and loops. We see instances of nice bongo fills and a gentle background under the delay of hi-hats and crash cymbals.
The overall flavor of this tune is heavy and hearty, commanding activity from a dance floor and listeners worldwide.
