Dual Color & Erik Phelan – Riot [February 24 – SB Records]

by JP Hadley · February 18, 2014

Even though the label is still young, SB Records seems to have found some talented young artists. Their next release is a tune called “Riot,” which comes in from group Dual Color, and solo producer Erik Phelan. Each hails from Venezuela, and looks to make a big splash on the dance music scene based in Europe. “Riot” will be released on February 24.

The melody features two sections, as there is a simplistic pluck sound layered on top of a more thick synth. Meanwhile, there is a simple clap sound keeping the beat. The lead filters down as the buildup gets underway. With a chopped up 303 sound and a catchy percussion fill, the drop on “Riot” gets underway. An energetic and razor-sharp lead is paired up with a bouncy and dynamic bass kick to create some big room perfection.
