Teenage Mutants vs. Moonwalk
Dreamy melody crafters Moonwalk show off their techno side as they double up with label mainstay Teenage Mutants for a split-EP. Moonwalk set the coordinates signing off the incipient track, a pensive composition boasting a steady bassline traced with scintillating whirs. Lush vocals complete the melody, while additional metallic percussive pads densen the groove, trailing off to an abrupt halt. ‘Meteora’ props a cynical mood, as grave synths interlace, gradually unraveling a crisp and straightforward arrangement.
Teenage Mutants’ first contribution comes in the shape of the tribalesque vocal infused ‘Bokawa’. Kicking off with an immersive percussion, ‘Casio’ instantly comes off as a heavy hitting, dancefloor absorbing cut. Constant blipping ticks reveal the title connection, while synth sequences cushion the groove line. Despite using an array of additional elements, the bassline remains the centerpiece and ultimately makes for an incisive earworm.
