Mikrokosmos "Two Places"

Vapour´s artist roster has steadily been reaching further and further across the globe away from the label´s Australian roots, and it´s 2004 release schedule is testament to that fact, this particular release homegrown in Switzerland. Mikrokosmas is producer Martin Knecht and here his track ´Two Places´ gets reworked by the dynamic duo of Andre Absolut and Greed.

Their ´Remix´ is a smooth and shimmering cut, tight progressive grooves and a bassline to die for floating amongst warm effects and squelchy analogue-esque sounds. Subtle stutter effects send ripples through the arranged beats, building to a massive futuristic breakdown where a filtered vocal effect comes into play momentarily, before the the pads and effects edge back in for the zoned out final section.

For the ´Re-Edit´, Absolut & Greed create a deeper mood, tough beats and minor melodies leading in before a lazy bassline and laid back percussion take over. Swirling atmospheres, rapid key changes and a drifting melody all come together to deliver a stunning set building cut that will fit into a set in almost chameleon fashion.

Once again, Vapour deliver the goods, and with a solid release schedule set up for much of 2004, watch as it´s international profile soars higher and higher.
