Denver-based producer STÉLOUSE, or “Stay Loose” if accents aren’t particularly your thing, has this way with teleporting sounds from alternate-past dimensions and mashing them up to create this super fusion of sounds.
The newest track from the 80’s revivalist titled ‘Joyride,’ sees essentially, this collection of drops and sub-fusions of different elements. The EP, ‘The City’ of which ‘Joyride’ is on, is out on the 19th of May, via DIEHIGH Records.
Opening with tinkering hints of trap, and surging further through this sub-80’s revival, colourful synths splash the excessive cymbals, and furthermore, heighten to first drop into a pool of shiny melodies and watery bass lines. The introduction of a percussive element, particularly sounding like a wooden block or something of the kind, forces the song to progress, and literally feel like a joyride.
STÉLOUSE has this way of making something big out of tiny sounds, and I think it’s the simplicity of the tones that forcefully comes together for this almighty package of sound, beats and melodies.
