Track Of The Day: Tan-Ru – Purple Heart (Trelik)


A track that did the business for me bitd and one that could have it’s time again. A combination of break beats, boffing bass and schematic cymbals, this pressure cooker of a tune is defintely a secret weapon when dropped at the right time. It’s one of those tunes that seems to be simmering forever, and it manages to do this by starting off at a high point, then maintaining its intensity. Coming out on Trelik when it did, I could have bought it expecting something more minimal, instead of the banger that I got. Having said that ‘Toggle’ on the other side, feels like a more stripped down version, while ‘Melons’ is dub reggae. An interesting release no matter what angle you approach it from.
