Fektive Records first came to my attention via the massive JS16 “Rosegarden” which intermingles techy dance with house and a broody electronica background, with this in mind; I was very pleased to see another instalment.
The philosophy behind Fektive is thinking creative, acting distinctively and producing music to fill the floors, and with a young and dynamic team in the background they are pushing the boundaries of dance and its genres.
For the next release, Malta based producer Glenn Frantz steps up to the table with 2 underground dance floor fillers. His previous releases have been supported by Armin Van Buuren, Markus Schulz, Gabriel & Dresden and many more.
Spacebar starts with a cooler deep style; it fits in a very progressive house state and a tough bass with subtle keys building away. Constantly bubbling and brooding it gathers momentum into a breakdown which veers into deep progressive trance. It cleverly has several genres elements thrown in and mixed very well and this really does mean several cross plays and will suffice in many sets of house, progressive, and deep trance Dj’s. A strong kicking sound throughout means it doesn’t just float over you head and has a nice constant energy to the whole track.
Backspace opts for a much deeper vibe; again a killer and really strong electronic bass drives the track forward with a deep techy progressive sound. A deep breakdown takes you down into an almost haunting at times direction, but just when the track drops back in, the bass and sounds really collide and add a depth that really works to push it forward until the end and yet another cool underground floor track is created.
