Dub That Chord Kelvin Belton

Rebar's ever-expanding ‚made of Concrete‘ continues it's efflorescence as it presents the next instalment on the label which comes courtesy of Stuttgart based Kelvin Belton. Anyone who has seen Belton in action will be familiar with his profuse productions and the vitality of his live performances. He is an artist who draws effectively on the intrigue of human touch when making and presenting his music and is lauded for his bold, precise club music.

Here, he presents his 'Dub That Chord' EP - a heady, kinetic set of moods which meld the subaqueous sonics of Dub with the rough, frazzled textures of Techno. The title track kicks things off with a sunken, swirling chord set stabbing over a steady, rumbling low end. Interchanging hats swap in / out which keeps a vibe bubbling throughout. 'Multiple Dimension's then follows up with a sharp 909 hat set slapping above a bright and clear kick drum. More dubbed out tones bleed in and work to conjure up emotions found in those long, dawn lit dance-floor sessions where the haze of the day begins to illuminate a once darkened club space.

'Movement' then follows up with a potent, no nonsense tool. A burly kick hammers under tribal percussion, fuzzy FX and a warped drone which keeps pressure up throughout. Barcelona's Victor Fernandez then follows up with his pacy take on the title track. The original's deep chords are given FX treatment in a track which playfully switches between broken beat structures and racing, 4/4 drums.
