Club Angel – Babylon’s Burning [Astral People]

Australian music’s Junglist that was promised, Club Angel comes to claim the crown withvhis forthcoming second studio EP Soundbwoy’s Destiny, due out March 14 via Astral People Recordings and announced today alongside the release of latest single ‘Babylon’s Burning’.

In yet another exceedingly impressive display of high-octane club muscle from the prodigiously talented Eora/Sydney-based producer and DJ, ‘Babylon’s Burning’ sounds exactly as its title implies – a subterranean bacchanalia of reggae samples as chaotic breakbeats, rubbery digital synths and soulful horns frantically rain down. Of the track, Club Angel shares: “‘Babylon’s Burning’ is a true jungle cut at heart – which is music that has had a profound effect on me over the years”.

‘Babylon’s Burning’ arrives hot on the heels of previously released EP singles ‘Stylin’’, a relentless yet tightly controlled melee of uplifting house music that rides the border between sky-high exuberance and unbridled pandemonium, and the recent ‘Cry’, a rave-flickered, melancholic hyper-ballad blending brisk, UKG rhythms with an irresistible, pitch-shifted vocal sample. Together, the singles present Club Angel at his unstoppable and multifarious
best. With praise and support flowing from triple j, FBi Radio, ACCLAIM, The Music, Purple Sneakers, Music Feeds, Pilerats and others, he is fast-building a reputation for trading in precise, tightly-wound, stylish dance music that is as emotional as it is exultant, balancing niche genre influences with an inherent pop nous.
