London based producers Filth and Splendour have put together a tech house EP to blow your minds. The two tracks ‘Hot Pick’ and ‘Knight rider’ equally showcase what these two, relatively new DJs, are all about, and serves to add another big release to their rapidly expanding string of production efforts.
2009 has without doubt been the biggest year for this duo, which started out with a series of hugely successful parties for Itch Records at Brixton club Plan B. Held with their close counterparts Club Natural, and booking the likes of Deepgroove, James Harcourt and Defected’s Rae. Their DJ residencies have also grown, from previously playing at The Key, The Cross and The Egg, they’ve also continued their long standing residency rocking Pure Pacha in London on a monthly basis and delivering upfront cuts producing deep, techy house sets and always keeping the crowds on their toes.
Known for their eclecticism and ability for transforming rooms by relentlessly reading the crowd, these two are without doubt big room DJs at the top of their game. Most recently they’ve put in stellar performances at London nightclubs Koko, Lightbox and Matter to name a few! Their production efforts have equally not fallen short delivering over 28 well supported releases on their own label Itch Records, Baroque, Bigger Dear and Born Dirty. Each gaining support from big name DJs including Dubfire, Carl Cox, Hybrid, Laidback Luke, Nic Fanciulli and Anil Chawla. The boys were also seen producing an exclusive promo mix for Total Kiss this year, which certainly captured the essence of the live sound they portray at any gig.
Both ‘Hot Pick’ and ‘Knight rider’ are effectively big room techno, with the first building throughout the 6 minutes and gaining momentum at a rapid pace. At mid point ‘Hot Pick’ certainly doesn’t fall short with the odd interception of spaced electric notes the kick is satisfyingly uplifting. ‘Knight rider’ is the longer of the two, lasting 8 minutes in total, which in turn creates a far darker atmosphere. With slightly lighter synths juxtaposed with the heavy drum beat this track is not for the faint hearted, and serves as a clear example as to why this pair fit excellently into big room DJ sets. Filth and Splendour are indeed ones to watch for 2010.
