Victor Stancov is a producer and DJ hailing from the coastal region of Constanta, Romania, a country that’s become synonymous with the stripped-back twist in contemporary house Stancov delivers here via his new label [simple:tracks]. As the name would suggest, the label’s aim is to find pleasure and joy in the simple things, delivering dance floor focused cuts for groove seekers. To launch [simple:tracks] Stancov himself steps up to deliver two originals on the debut 12’’ and up first is title- cut ‘Apollo’, laid out over six and a half minutes with an amalgamation of choppy chord sequences, swinging percussion and subtly nuanced bass to create a hypnotic introduction. The second original ‘Delos’ follows, retaining a similarly ethereal aesthetic courtesy of snaking dubbed out synths, winding pads and a bumpy bass hook. To round out the release Wareika deliver their interpretation of ‘Delos’, and as expected from the German minimal maestro’s the guys delivery a typically unique twist on things. Reshaping the originals synth elements while stirring in intricately modulating percussion and tripped out metallic synth chimes to complete the package.
