08. Andres ‘New 4 U’ (La Vida)
In which Moodymann’s protege and long- standing Detroit player in his own right stepped out from the shadows of his mentor and minted a modern classic. Built from similar components to
Pepe Bradock’s ‘Deep Burnt’, ‘New 4 U’ soared on a pacy discoid analog bassline, lush Rhodes keys, but most of all, those majestic sampled strings, suspended on air, and thick with emotion and nostalgia. Andres skill at weaving together samples and beats learnt from years making house and hip-hop culminated in his best moment yet. The ultimate end-of-night tune, it’s sure to be remembered as one of this year’s finest, if not the decade’s.
09. Drums Of Death ‘Let No Shadow Fall Upon You’ (Civil Music)
The fearsome Drums Of Death (aka the more innocuous-sounding Colin Bailey) returned with the monstrous ‘Blue Waves EP’ in 2012, making
good on the dastardly promise of his ghoulish voodoo make-up. The high point was this neo rave mammoth, a flashback to hardcore’s sweetest euphoria, with its chattering breakbeat, big pianos and delirious diva before it dropped into a rough 4/4 bass-driven techno chimera devouring all in its path. A dancefloor event, pandemonium was witnessed wherever this incendiary was dropped.
10. Krystal Klear ‘We’re Wrong’ (All City)
‘We’re Wrong’ sums up the current interest in the vintage, garage-inspiring house of MK, Kerri Chandler et al, trouncing all opposition with butter-smooth boogiefied bass, chopped vocals,
deft drum patterns and of course a solid serving of piano to make a bouncy party starter that might have been made in ‘92, were the production not so crisp and on the money. It raised Manchester-based Irishman Krystal Klear’s profile no end in 2012.
