Omid 16B compiles a superb 5 track Summer Sampler for the next release on SexOnWax Recordings. Nantais & Hazendonk serve up a solid remix of Omid 16B & Alex George’s ‘Deep Water.’ Oriental-esque strings create an exotic soundscape whilst the percussion ‘scatters’ in and out before settling into a constant driving pace. The synths gradually creep in underneath swooping over the beat whilst the warm, thumping bass keeps the beat grounded. Next up, Alex George’s ‘My Robot Dream’ is a suitably named track. The minimal percussion is layered by ‘glitchy’ melody that creates an almost ‘calculating’ soundscape. The melody weaves itself throughout the beat, leading the charge on an unpredictable groove. Leo Perez and Garzia’s ‘Flight 2112’ beat rocks back and forth with a gradual throbbing, bassline that moves in to supply a dominant groove and add an air of dark tones, baring a hypnotic nature, deserving of early morning dance floors. The release moves on with Michelangelo & Giacomo’s ‘Cosmic Balance’, a dreamy, tranquil affair. The drums gently patter whilst synth notes swoop back and forth in waves. A subtle melody gently skips over the top creating a soothing, hypnotic feel carrying the listener through a ‘cosmic’ soundscape. Finishing off, Kevin Toro keeps it all minimal with ‘Beautiful Illusion.’ The percussion keeps to a steady pace whilst the melodic bass adds a ‘rising’ feel. A catchy synth melody bounces over the top giving the beat a trance like edge....

Chris Gavin makes a return to Alola with this hypnotic masterpiece, ‘Revolving Doors’ is a journey into sonic wizardry with sounds and samples that create excitement and anticipation throughout the whole track. The Original mix is progressive in nature rather than genre, fitting in with any Dj who appreciates mystery over the obvious, dark synth bass sweeps and minimal percussion driving the track throughout. On the flip Omid 16B gets into the guts of the track, staying true to the original but adding extra elements, powerful bass notes sit on top of a potent beat, teasing the listener with the hooks coming through every now and then, a fitting juxtaposition to the original.

First included in an all-star remix package on the re-booted Hard Times label, Omid 16B drops this pair of mixes on his own Alola Records. The Late Night Mix is exactly what you’d expect… a grooving, evolving sojourn through deep, understated textures keeping the pulse going, while the Early Morning Mix at nearly 14 mins builds on this, weaving in a mellow breakdown with flavours of the iconic vocal. The package closes with an unexpected bonus track, ‘The Walk In’… employing complex live rhythmical structures and innovative production to bring them to the fore, this track is enchantingly tribal in a superbly inclusive way.
