<Psy-tech> Spintwist are a label on fire at the moment if the Beatport charts are anything to go by. Serving a clever mix of clubby trance and progressive psy-tech, they have breached a crossover sound that is finding its way into DJ’s sets of varying styles. Fabio & Moon epitomise this sound and should please fans of the currently very popular Neelix. But whilst Neelix sometimes flirts with progressive house and at other times with harder kicking tech-trance, Fabio & Moon are all about bouncy, funky tunes. Expect plenty 2-note basslines, vocal effects, synthy guitar stabs and reverse sweeps. The success in Not Like The Otherz lay in the fact that this is an album you can play from beginning to end in your car or at home, at a braai or house party and it’s bound to get you and anybody listening hopping to the infectious beats. The duo are seasoned producers, so expect an album dripping with well crafted production tricks. From a DJ perspective Not Like The Otherz is also a handy collection and although any of the tracks will work a dancefloor there are a few stand outs I expect will get the most deck time. Picks for me include; Passenger and the title track as well as a deep remix of Neelix’s recent anthem, Expect What.
