London-based producer and DJ Tarquin has returned to Gobstopper. “Grease (Chord Mix)” is a high tempo example of the genre’s more experimental side, using fragmented percussive samples set to a background of pitch-bent chord stabs and twisted melodic elements. Providing as much impact in the track’s negative space as in its instrumentation, Tarquin s minimalist approach to production on “Grease (Chord Mix)” establishes its boldness and makes it one of the most recognisable examples of deconstructed club music of the year so far. As a counter-point to the abstract starkness of “Grease (Chord Mix)”, the release s flip side “Foxtown” utilises ominous synths and distorted bass tones to tackle the more upfront sound of first generation grime production.
