DALE MIDDLETON: TORD EP [EJ UNDERGROUND]

Following the release of a string of successful remixes and originals throughout the summer on Moonchild, Stripped Recordings, Clinique Recordings and Sudbeat Music, DALE MIDDLETON ushers us into the Autumn with his latest project ‘Tord’. The EP is   due for release on November 1st.

Delivering a fusion of interpretations on the deeper, underground sounds of house and techno; Dale’s new project ‘Tord’ features a stunning original production from the man himself, accompanied by chopped-up re-imaginings from Chloe Fontaine, Dave Seaman, Lee Williams and D-Formation.

Dale’s original cut of ‘Tord’ gathers momentum as it progresses. Flowing from mellow loops, ticking drum work and bubbling melodics, the track itself is warm and subtle.

DAVE SEAMAN takes control of the engine in his chugging rework, smashing out bigger kicks and rumbling bass elements. Seaman keeps things characteristically underground and dark throughout.

Maintaining the underground vibe, CHLOE FONTAINE brings a fresh and flirty flavour to her remix. Hammering out a wide range of tribal percussion, she harnesses the warmth of the original for an upbeat and floral tribute to the end of summer.

If you’re after a remix with more of a progressive feel, the D-FORMATION remix will do you no harm. Some menacing undertones are drawn out with a shuffling kick drum and warbling sub bass, balanced alongside ethereal vocals and gently swelling strings.

Last but not least, is the ever so minimal remix from Bournemouth-based LEE WILLIAMS. Harnessing the full power of subtly he straddles the sparse edges of techno with eerie mechanics and industrial sonics.
