Next up on the Five AM roster is an explosive collaboration between Octagen and Hydroid. The track is called 'Creature Of Habit' and it's sounding pretty good...

:: Hydragen - Creature Of Habit
:: Five AM

1) Creature Of Habit (Original Mix)

Things just instantly gain potential when you notice that Paul Moelands (Octagen) and Itay Steinberg (Hydroid) are involved in a collaboration. These two driving forces in trance at the moment have concocted 'Creature Of Habit', the Original Mix of which kicks off strongly with a fat and gutsy bassline which reminds me of the one found in Cern - The Message (more top quality Five AM tunage!). This rolling, energetic bass is a solid base to build on and as the track gains ground, small synths begin to rise up and quirky psy trance like effects are infused into the sound, creating a fidgety and lively build up. As you hit the breakdown, one of the track's best elements comes into play. It is an electric guitar which plays a wicked little riff, accompanied by another guitar playing a really cheeky hook full of funky string bending and powerful strikes. A rich synth pushes out a trancey riff when the track drops and it's soon joined by the guitars, culminating in an invigorating and sparkling energy which is dusted with a hint of euphoric loveliness. Another fine point about this track is that instead of ending right after the main section, it continues for a while with a really driving section where those psytrance sounds are brought right up into the foreground and given loads more power. There is a little bit more of that ace guitar action before the track begins to wind down.

2) Creature Of Habit (Octagen's Abajo Remix)
This remix by Octagen's hand is immediately tribal sounding in style. Hollow toms and a crisp lining of percussion are backed by a pounding beat, and strong, bassy synth drives things onwards with booming notes and rising scales. These bits are a little reminiscent to the hooks sound on SvD's recent remix of the Arctic Monkeys - The Sun Goes Down. The tech element is driven home here with deep veins of rasping synths which get even stronger and coarser during the breakdown. The rest of the track features small semi-melodic breaks which feature snippets of the electric guitar riffs, but on the whole of it, this track just pounds it's way home with a heavy dose of tribal tech flavours.

Conclusion:
You'd expect nothing less to come from these two excellent producers. Octagen's Abajo Remix will appeal to those looking for the techier sounds whilst the Original Mix will grab the most attention with its full on sound and awesome guitar riffs.
