Dam Swindle return to Heist in excellent form with a four-track EP in their signature style. The iconic Amsterdam duo returned to the studio after their much-lauded Minor Fools EP, where the lead track "That's Right" became one of the most heartwarming tracks 2023. The guys are known for their ability to bend different styles into something very much their own and their newest addition to the Heist catalog is no different. The Touch Me Again EP sees them go from sample-heavy house to classic '90s piano-driven tracks with a touch of acid and it's one you don't want to miss. The record starts with "Touch Me Again," a house jam with chopped vocals, energetic synth stabs and a big breakdown. Add to that a touch of acid and you've got a follow-up to their Phonica hit of 2023. "Hang On" takes you back into classic Swindle territory, with their signature sampling style and knack for finding those lush vocals. The synth chops and bassline give the track its upbeat energy and the distant filtered pads move in an ever so subtle way, that there's always something new happening while keeping the attention on that catchy main hook. On the flip, the guys take things a bit deeper with emotive vocals and introverted keys layered over a steady groove on their track "The Joy of Melancholy." Fast-forward to the drop and all that energy comes free with a huge piano break, which propels the track into a blissful "hands-in-the-air" dancefloor moment. The EP closes with "Forever and Ever," a gospel-inspired deep house tune full of organ hits and off-kilter sample chops. This four-track EP gives you jam upon jam upon jam and sees Dam Swindle solidify their position as the go-to artist in the house scene and keeps them at the forefront of electronic music.
