Dan F - Eco/Namo Namo

  • Share
  • Hong Kong's Dan F has been doing the hard yards lately, and by that I mean he's been pulling out the hard nu-skool breaks and the latest one from his Disuye label continues on that same level. Side A. Eco Complex breakbeat pattern with the hi-hat's going crazy. Eco is identified by a nice continuous bassline which doesn't seem to want to stop for a breather. Add in a few bassline tweaks and a few builds for some peak time set business. Halfway through the song, the beat slows to half the original tempo and the tech elements go mad with plenty of warps and twists - good to f*ck peoples heads with, especially the DJ's. Side B. Namo Namo Sounding like something from a Japanese cartoon, Namo Namo starts off with some commentary/documentary samples on top of some minimal drum elements, namely a hit hat and snare drum taps. A bit more of an atmospheric tune, this tune is for a laidback section of a set. Once the drums kick in, a few girly pop samples are thrown in and a warpy bassline. Personally, Eco is the tune to get in this release, whereas Namo Namo feels a bit too trancey and weird.
