Habersham - Transparent Sound

Atlanta's Damon Fonooni has been producing for a little while now, collaborating on occasion with his friend Brett Abramson (aka DJ Numinous) on labels such as Music Is Freedom and their own Blueprint Recordings. However, more recently Habersham has been branching out on his own, and after a few low key minor releases that received variable support, has really turned up the heat resulting in material like these two dynamite numbers, 'Transparent Sound' and 'Follow The White Rabbit' which after hearing were quickly snapped up by Dave Seaman as the latest release on his Audiotherapy label.

Spooky chimes and chords lend a spine chilling and haunting introduction to the a-side track 'Transparent Sound'. As each layer of melody creeps it's way in, a new main section begins to appear, and rumbling bass and beats soon jostle for attention against the constant chimes that rain down upon the groove. A solid bassline repeats itself, swelling until it interrupts the rest of the track and changes the direction of the track, taking it down a stomping 4/4 route where eastern style influences become apparent, but it's when the sub bass section comes in toward the end of the track and the melody is left to it's own devices that this track really slams. A gorgeous set opener that emerges from it's cocoon into a dynamic straight and breakbeat hybrid, hinting at a deeper diversity to Habersham's production skills.

Both sides bring the goods in their own unique way, and show exactly why Habersham is set to become one of the biggest names over the next few months, so you can either take the blue pill and pass this by, or take the red pill, and be able to say you knew about one of Atlanta's best kept secrets long before the rest of the world catches on.

i always feature his tracks in my sets...

here's a review of his latest:

Habersham & Numinous - Leaving Tifton

Habersham & Numinous explore their darker side for their latest single on their own label Blueprint Recordings. Blueprint is a relatively new label that will feature some stunning talent from around the world, and 'Leaving Tifton' is a chugging progressive tune with faint melodies, gnarly basslines and a twisted vocal that is an absolutely hook. Digital Witchcraft from Atlanta create a beautiful progressive breaks rework suitable for anytime of night over on the flip.

Habersham & Numinous' own 'Original Mix' is a creepy world of spooky synths backed with a dirty bassline and trippy vocals. Intricately programmed beats take us away while crystal edged sounds flow deep and fall in-between breaks. A growly bassline whips though the beats and drops off into a break. A twisted vocal pierces through the lush synths and drops flat into a heavy bassy break beat that picks up once again and chugs till the end.

'Digital Witchcraft' have been causing quite a stir among progressive breaks fans. Their sounds are beautiful and trippy, with lots of stunning effects. They build 'Leaving Tifton' into a smoother lush break beat journey, with loads of spacey sounds and lovely synth work. The break beat builds along the airy synths working up into a nice groove. The bass stabs are light and move directly into a drop off introducing the vocal bits. Flying above all the sounds, the synths grow from behind and drop off into a break introducing the twisted up vocal part and working back into the beats.

Habersham & Numinous have created something very special for Blueprint. Beautiful layers and textures with a galloping beat rolled into a package with a great remix by Digital Witchcraft make this one of the best releases of the year so far.

this song simply put is epically wicked. "what a ride" very mellow and deep with incredible riffs and more breakdowns than the i-95 during rush hour. this beauty of a track will open ur mind and soul to the sounds of habersham. then some deep breaks towards the end to make it dj friendly. perfect for the beginning of the night or in those late night after parties.

4/5 stars for me:) wicked

cheers
