KOM 457EP
|
Hardt Antoine is a London based DJ producer of French and West Indian descent, who continuously combines his hugely colorful and eclectic taste in music. He has also made a name for himself with his Reculture label and club nights. His Kompakt debut clearly shows why he's one to watch in the years to come. "Nobody's Watching" is a dark grooving beast with bending synth lines and a haunting vocal; counterbalanced with uplifting Eastern analog pads. It's from this rare breed of tracks that shine in a frantic peak time set and sexy, late-night moments alike. "All We See" follows a similar path. Its mandatory bassline and dark melody evolve into something uplifting, as if to say -- "We always see light at the end of our tunnel." "Radial" takes a more cinematic approach and largely neglects the dancefloor in a classic Kompakt three-track EP fashion, following a lovely tradition that began with Dettinger's Blond and later on spawned the Pop Ambient movement. Hardt Antoine proves himself a jack of all trades... Keep an eye on him!
