Ireland’s Tr One brings his deep minimal grooves to Echtrai. Title track “Never Be As Much Fun” showcases his brand of deep musical electronics as it perfectly straddles the line between house and techno. It's sparse, funky and made for the dancefloor. Blamhaus goes the electro route for his remix. Hefty distorted beats and bass compliment the melodies of the original.
“Week 15” brings a deep and insistent bassline that juxtaposes its dreamy pads and minimal composition.
Buuk takes the throbbing bass of the original and runs with it. Upping the tempo and adding a churning synthline he turns in a steamroller of a remix.
