Shane Berry - Fillertet 2

  • Share
  • The title track "Fillertet 2" on the A-side is a glitchy, minimal house groover. The track has a real electronic feel to it with tight rhythms using occasionally offset staccato snares, before the drums pause and the low end disappears. A huge, sweeping, filtered whoosh which develops into a buzzing, hairdryer noise begins to dominate until it completely overshadows the rhythm. This acts as a dynamo for the track with its vibrating, reverberating effect certain to cause head spins if listened to at the right volume. After all this subsides, it's back into that tight minimal rhythm which is very much like the Sleeparchive stuff that has been doing the rounds of late. A general-purpose type of track which could be a useful tool in many a DJ's set. (6/10) Through its clever use of subtle rhythm and its accessible feel "Polytet 3" suggests it could be the favourite for most on this release. Swishy sounds unfurl and build in the background as the track develops before a proggy type synth and bassline is added. This synth starts in a subdued manner before rising up, along with the swishing filter sound, to almost deafening proportions - the ultimate attention seeker! This too, should spin a few heads on the floor and I imagine it could be quite effective in slowly turning up the heat inside a club. (7/10)
