Moguai "Get:On"

Moguai returns hot on the heels of ´U Know Y´, which was released earlier this year on Hope after an impressive tenure oversees. The follow up, ´Get:On´ is another big room influenced track that places its basis around huge basslines and monster riffs. Already this has followed in the footsteps of the previous single with an ´Essential New Tune´ accolade. Hype or tripe? Let´s find out..

Tight beats and guitar riffs edge us into the ´Original Mix´, descending into a bassline compromised of soft breakbeats as the guitar riff stabs and builds over the top. When the ´let´s get it on´ vocal kicks in the track takes on a whole new dimension, gnarling guitars crashing against the cut up grooves that slide underneath, fading to a solo before building one last time into a massive vocal breakdown, with the resounding filthy outro smashing through key changes and distorted feedback with reckless abandon.

The ´Punx Motorcycle Edit´ takes things a bit easier, starting off with some deep sounds and slow beats complimented by a vocal intro which harnasses the energy of the track and unleashes it as the main section kicks in, with emphasis on the rock guitar that layers like a soundclash but thrashes with emotion and raw energy. Not too far departed from the original, but a nice rework nonetheless.

Moguai looks set to become one of the main artists within Hope´s stable based on the accolades and success he has been getting. It will be interesting to see how this affects Hope´s dominance on the music scene over the coming months.
