Soma Records techno titans Slam join forces with Amelie Lens for ‘Louder Than Chaos Vol. 4’

The penultimate Louder Than Chaos has Soma’s techno titans Slam join forces with Belgium’s finest export, Amelie Lens. A collaboration a long time in the making, the Glasgow duo of Stuart McMillan & Orde Meikle bring their trademark crafts, melding it perfectly with Amelie’s driving synth lines. The output is three outstanding dancefloor killers combining both artists’ unique and powerful styles.

The dark and driving ‘Uncontrolled’ opens Vol. 4 perfectly as steamrolling bass and punchy, rhythmic percussion lead to an ominous and twisting synth hook that propels this track skyward. Keeping the momentum going, ‘Clarity’ instantly has an old school groove at its heart that gradually builds into a searing acid hook that cleverly disguises dynamic melodic elements. Closing out the EP is ‘Construct’ that shows no mercy coming out the block with a supercharged low end and electrified synths, dropping down into an expertly crafted, dynamic breaks & bass heavy breakdown before slamming back in with huge energy.
