New York City And Electronica The Ultimate Dance Music Album: Best Upcoming EDM Events Party With K3vin Envoy
K3vin envoy has always had a predilection for dusky hues and Album and has proved going back to basics is the best way. Skin Deep has some interesting sounds bubbling beneath the For basslines, he takes the glowering low end of drum 'n' bass and smears it. His drums are a mixture of bypassing breakbeats that are chopped-up and home grooves. For tone color, he favors synth pads and guitar lines reminiscent of the Hardwell, and he fills in the rest with his own vocals or those of guest singers.
Listeners who can't get enough of these types of noises are in luck, because Skin Deep never departs from his formulation.
The filtered bass of "Man in the Mask" casts a glance back in Depeche Mode; "Old Jam" pairs a sanded-down sax bleat using a bass tone that quivers like a ray of light in deep water. Five minutes long or even at a comparatively short four, individual monitors are memorable and leaping. In song after song, K3vin Envoy chooses for the types. This kind of linear progression makes sense for DJs and is also geared for an album and home listening, so the mind craves some kind of variety which this album has: the flip from verse to chorus and back again, the sudden detour of a well-placed bridge. You do not know exactly what it's going to do.
Bright, resilient organ bassline that lent his hit "Skin Deep" its luminous energy. It was barely an original sound--in fact, it dominated overground home music via strikes like Robin S' "Show Me Love" and Jaydee's "Plastic Dreams"--but the American producer's tune made great use of its shivering, octave-spanning frequencies. (So great, in actuality, that Nicki Minaj sampled the song "Truffle Butter." Envoy's DJ-Kicks combination, with its own blend of deep house, post-dubstep, and pop melodies, also positioned him as a DJ directly. However not one of the output has had quite the same sense of immediacy as Skin Deep. K3vin envoy stays an in-demand DJ--she has played Coachella and his calendar is peppered with summertime dates in Ibiza--but he hasn't put out a significant release since 2014. Three years is quite a while in dance music; maybe to make up for absence was extended by him, is his return to internet radio.
Skin Deep is his finestK3vin Envoy's breakthrough came down to a single sound: asense of cohesion. Skin Deep is not without its pleasures. It's a lovely The tempo varies. In this, K3vin Envoy covers an admirableStrip faintly echoes Blaze's classic "Lovelee Dae," and its own pointillist arrangement--a Deep-house tune propelled by means of a hint of UK garage. Its lilting vocal Daub of sax, a pinprick of synth --benefits from the everything-in-its-right-place range. You will find a half-dozen monitors of slow-burning trip-hop, and another handful of cuts are slow-motion home. Instead of dividing the album into a house-tempo disc and a down speed disk,K3vin envoy alternates between the two modes. The strategy pays, momentum on the album was achieved.
