“Studio Apartment” released the new music Album “Wood Star, LED Soil (Hideo Kobayashi Remix)”
“Studio Apartment” just dropped the new and hot Album “Wood Star, LED Soil (Hideo Kobayashi Remix)”. It will contain the songs 'Wood Star', 'LED Soil (feat. MAUMA)' and 'LED Soil (feat. MAUMA) [Hideo Kobayashi Remix]' total of 3songs. Enjoy the Instrumental sound from the far east Asia.
The ingenious mind of Masanori Morita and Noboru Abe AKA STUDIO APARTMENT returns to the prolific N.E.O.N label with two hypnotic cuts of trance-inducing techno fusion. Cementing his feet firmly to the ground once again, Morita delivers a smooth continuation from the sonics of his previous EP; with 'Wood Star' and 'LED Soil', two mesmerising dance records that will deliver an unparalleled body-high! Fellow Tokyoite Hideo Kobayashi is enlisted for the remix duties of 'LED Soil', delivering his punchy, bass-driven sounds to the original. 'Wood Star' sets off with a fierce, dominant synth bassline that growls and distorts through its enchanting melody. Drawing the listener in whilst opening up like a widening gaze, it's soon accompanied by soft, contrasting synth pads and metric insertions of chord stabs from Morita's plethoric synth collection. Layering up still, a Theremin style lead tremulates over the brooding swell of the backdrop before breaking down with wooden percussion rhythms and 16th note synthesizer accompaniments. Stacking layer upon layer with precision, Morita strides through this dense web of rhythms with TR-808 hi-hats and sparse claps before breaking the track down with an entrancing synth improvisation. 'LED Soil' contrasts the A side with an instant hypnosis delivered by psychedelic vocals and worldly drums interlocking across a firm 4x4 kick. Here, Morita crafts a series of interlocking melodies that arise between the relationships of each sound. A rising synth drone captivates us through to a breakdown where his archetypal, polyrhythmic Afro-style percussion takes flight. Across the dusty plains of pounding drums and blistering sunshine lies a mirage of ecstasy where Morita breaks away for an authentic, bi-tonal Mongolian vocal lead that shimmers across the beat of the drums like a bird-cry echoing between towering mountains. Bit-crushed synthesizers reflect the rise and fall of these masterful vocal leads like the call and response of a chanting tribe and this undulating hypnosis continues with no reason to end. Finally, the masterful sounds of Hideo Kobayashi take the spellbinding sounds of 'LED Soil' through their paces; bringing a crisp sawtooth bassline that cuts through the pulse of firm kicks and shimmering 808 hi-hats. Taking the tribal sounds of the original and hurling them through a wormhole into the future, Kobayashi delivers a futuristic space voyage with the weight of a galactic fleet, paying gentle homage to the humble earthly-tones of lead vocals through a mind-melting breakdown before taking off once again for a distant galaxy on the horizon '
