Franky Carbon-E - Sun Storm

Franky Carbon-e is someone we have been following closely at Critical Elements and we're delighted to get him on the label with an original release following his excellent remix of Fiddler's 'Above The Clouds'. Hailing from Alicante in Spain, Franky's deep, dub-techno style is one that fits nicely into the the labels spectrum of genres.

The original mix starts as it means to go on with a solid, chugging, rhythmic and hypnotic beat. Sprinkled with metallic synths and an intelligent filtered background vocal, think very similar to the pioneering hazy lazy day progressive sound of Dousk and G-Pal. This track would work chilling on the beach on a hot summer day with headphones on as much as it would warming up a progressive dance floor early doors.

For remix duties we look to Nicolas Barnes from Latvia. Nicolas's sound suits the remix of Franky's track perfectly, taking it up a notch, injecting a little more energy and lifting the melody and rhythm. There's no mistaking the origins of the original in this track but Nicolas adds some mesmerising synth programming here which creates the holy grail of vortex!
