Spell – Soulhoppers [Stripped Digital]

by Ran Salman August 25, 2014

Soulhoppers; made up of 5 members impress with their Live Electronic/ Techno strains from Lithuania. And they are in the spotlight with a massive Stripped Digital release in the form of a sinewy get down and low track- ”Spell”. The pulsing bass shine of the original mix takes hold of your senses with it’s echoing female Vocals cascading like a slow motion waterfall around the muted melody pattern. The appearance of chords happen to be neatly placed and really helps in making it smooth and eloquent all through..
Turning to Al Bradley’s Deep Remix; his handiwork starts hauntingly and picks up enough big bass to lift and give the track his own sweet imprint. Keeping the ornamentation of the Vocals free for attention, the tune pans out beautifully in a kind of smoky Techno zone.
On the flip side my ears fill up instantly with the Phonic Scoupe Remix, with it’s edgy pumping bass shudders and this time around the Vocals get a hurried feel. The chord extension in it is glitchy and this one’s a dancier version for sure. To finish the pack up is the Future Sound Scientists Remix, which is the most Minimal sounding of all, the vocals get a looping treatment and a more grooving vibe to it’s under belly. Loads of bubbling double bass, winding around the all too familiar chord progression makes it a disco flecked dance gem.
