Rouzbeh Delavari, who has releases on Furry Music with Ozgur Can, and Pure Substance with V-Sag, Snake Sedrick, and many more has finally released his newest tune. How does it hold up against his older work?
Think Inspiration - Original Mix is a truely fitting name for such a track. It starts off rather mellow, with fairly minimal clicks and stabs, building steadily until the bassline hits at the 2 minute mark. All this sounds rather decent, if a bit ho-hum to be quite honest. Where this tune really stands out however, is when the melody kicks in shortly after the three-minute mark. The melody is a real powerhouse that compliments the track to no end, with an impeccable flow, and a very smooth feel. Aggressive enough to completely demand your attention, but not so overpowering as to take away from the rest of the track, this melody manages to leave a great feeling in its wake - or it will for those it doesn't completely carry away.
Ozgur Can appears as if by magic, to work his own superb devilry to a track that doesn't leave much room for improvement. The track kicks off with Ozgur's signature sound that is damn near indescribable, but I will do my best. Almost everyone is familiar with it, and for those that aren't, it's a sort of chunky, thick sound, as if someone took one of Gabriel & Dresden's tracks, and stirred it up. A good sound, by most accounts. Ozgur lets the melody go around the same time as in the original, but due to his inherantly more melodic tune style, it's not quite as prominent here. It's a good thing for those who feel the melody was a bit overpowering, as the track has a much deeper sound here.
Brother Number One is an artist unknown to me, but after this remix, I'll be sure to keep an eye on him. He's not one to muck about with much in the way of suspense - he lets the melody go before a minute is up, and accompanied with his more prominent beats, this track seems to have gained twice the power. He also saw fit to add an incomprehensible vocal sample, which works surprisingly well. The build-ups in this track are more epic as well, easily giving this tune a more accessible feel when it comes to filling a dancefloor. Overall I'd really have to say this was my favourite remix out of the bunch, if only due to the creative and very well-sampled vocal piece.
Conclusion:
A resoundingly solid release by Rouzbeh, with superb remixes all around. I eagerly await more tunes from Rouzbeh, and I dearly hope to hear more from this unknown "Brother Number One". If there's anyone that still thinks '06 is off to a bad start, you must be completely off your rocker.
