Weekly mp3 #109: Poirier - 90's Backyard (Wildlife Remix)
Hugeness via RCRDLBL.
Hammering dance track based around a snake charmer riff that makes me want to jump around. Heaps of peaks and troughs, but basically it just belts you around the head.
Canadian producer Ghislain Poirier has gone from releasing ambient electronics, through (equally home-listening focused) hip-hop influenced stuff, to, well, attracting press blurbs like this:
Giving the massive what it wants, yet providing a musical education in what it needs, Poirier is a producer and DJ who has no boundaries except, perhaps, the rule that it’s gotta have bass, and it’s got to bounce. With this philosophy, Poirier will keep the dance rammed.
Curious trajectory.
Swiss producer Wildlife! must be inspired by Wham! and Snap!. Should I put a full stop after an exclamation mark? Interrobang!?
