- Mal Black is a producer that hails from Belfast in Ireland, and it was his track ‘Funk System’ that first put him on the scene and in DJ boxes owned by Paul Van Dyk as well as Seb Fontaine. If you are thinking then that his sound is Trance then think again, because this release definitely has a chunky house feel to it.
Gravity Pull is first up and it features some solid drums and a gutsy baseline that builds the track for the first half. Now the track then sees a Horn sound appear building into the baseline, and for me this aspect will either win or lose some fans. To be fair, it isn’t a cheesy Horn sound you may hear in a Vengaboys production, but it may scare some people off nevertheless. Otherwise this track is pretty solid and one fit for a loud sound system.
Girl on the flip is another one of those tracks that should definitely work on a loud sound system. Pretty solid drums meet a funky baseline and a filtered vocal line, but it’s the groove of the track that is sure to work as it flows smoothly and has a nice little funky edge to it. The title really suggests the audience this track is intended for.
A pretty good release for Convert, with both tracks working quite well. Definitely not boring, and with plenty of groove, this is sure to please many budding DJ’s.
