ILO - Waking Up

'Tensnake welcomes Glasgow & Reykjavik based producer ILO who adds to a classy back catalogue peppered with the deeper shades of Detroit Techno, Chicago House, Jazz, Funk and Electronica.

'Waking Up' is a chic record that showcases ILO's knack for sound design, mood-control and the subtle development of tension.

'Waking Up' kicks things off with a masterful slice of Deep House that rolls out an elastic and cool-headed groove. At the track's heart, buttery chords are spread in deliciously thick layers while ethereal vocals glide overhead. A ripe kick and another snarling bass line provide a contrasting grit, having the track kicking in all the right places.

Drums eventually grab the lime light at the conclusion of an atypical DJ tool: one that stands out in its ability to build energy and marshal a trip from A to B.

'Trust Me' follows up with Snipped vocals that are soaked in reverb and married with luscious synths to form a sonic cloud that plumes across the track while drums gather impetus. Gradually, rhythms begin to swell and an infectious groove emerges while a deep, snarling bass churns up the lower end of the sound spectrum.'
