Emerging artist Darren Clark presents us with three tracks occupying a space of their own between deep house, disco and Balearic. Three arrangements built on rock-solid foundations allowing deceptively complex arrangements. Three flavours characterised by judicious layering of sounds and subtle tweaks Suzy Like an architect wearing an iPod, this one builds and grooves. With a hypnotic two-note bassline and multiple complementary drum loops, Suzy is the track for a floor locked in tighter than a fat man's belt. Fluttering stabs and washes of sound herald a vocal refrain used so well it never outstays its welcome. And after a pause for breath there's welcome wonkiness with some woozy synth action. Memory Lane Balearic bubblebath this. Like being soothed at sunrise by the seashore after a hard night on the dancefloor. All burbling synth lines, groovy effects and snatches of string, underpinned by shuffling drums full of bongos and cowbells. The trump card is the looped choir vocal, drenched in reverb and drifting in and out of the arrangement from halfway through. Smooth as. Shape From the sun-kissed to the subterranean. Shape is a low-slung head-nodder with more than a hint of Detroit about it. It's driven by a pulsing filtered chord, percussive male vocal line and clever clap programming before crisp 909 hats and a fractured drum loop lift things halfway through. Clever use of loops, filters and effects ensure things nod but never plod.
