Dust To Dust - A Breakaway Into Breakbeat

August 3rd, 2008 · No Comments

As a producer of a lot of four-to-the-floor material, breaks can be a welcome relief and a creative challenge. This track has a special appeal for me as it is the sole survivor of a fatal hard drive failure a few years ago. The drums were custom as were the synth stabs used to underpin the whole track. It put me off doing so much work for a while after it happened; pain in the arse, computers. It’s pretty hard, tempered by some strings both legato and pizzicato in the bridge. Could be a tough edged film soundtrack piece, coming at the end when the credits roll. Much like Extreme Ways by Moby at the end of the Bourne films. Play it from the first time the drums drop 8 seconds in and see what I mean. . .
