- It's amazing what you can do with a keyboard riff and a drum pattern.
- Hessle Audio is having one of its biggest spring-summer seasons yet, pumping out hit after hit. In fact, in the past year the label has been ruling dance floors in a way not seen since the days of Joe's "Claptrap" and Objekt's "Cactus." Anz's remarkable "Clearly Rushing" is its latest anthem. Deceptively simple, the track is built around a flinty, 8-bit keyboard riff and a slamming UK garage beat. It builds toward an almost absurd breakdown, with whistling synths telling your lizard brain that something big is about to happen—but when the second drop appears, it's just those drums again, sounding as impossibly powerful as ever. It's amazing what taking something away and bringing it back again can do. You don't need to reinvent the wheel to blow minds.
