Rebuke – Rattle [Drumcode]
Rebūke joins the Drumcode family with a blistering three-track EP. We got our first taste of the Irishman’s exhilarating talents when he debuted on Truesoul back in April with ’50 First Raves’. His unique alchemy of house, techno and rave has seen him become one of the breakout stars of 2019 and ensured he’s stayed firmly on the radar of Adam Beyer.
Inspired by his experiences at Drumcode’s now-legendary party at Space Miami during WMC, Rebūke’s DC debut encompasses all the dynamic energy of his previous contributions, with peak-time pounding effect. ‘Rattle’ leads the trio, a cut voraciously track I.D’d by Rebūke’s fanbase and highly anticipated across the industry after a high-impact play during Radio 1’s Weekender in Ibiza.
The track pops with the producer’s trademark rubbery rhythms, pin-sharp drums, intermittent rave horns and a wicked acid line, culminating in a high-octane trip that’s one of the most thrilling we’ve heard on DC this year. ‘Operator’ spits fierce drum sequences before a tweaked-out bass melody grows with undulating intensity giving the track it’s shining character. ‘Metal’ builds with intergalactic stabs and claps before a menacing low-end melody enters the fore and his signature percussion gives the track an otherworldly tribal crunch.
Rebuke has also announced his Erā tour which kicks off in Galway on 31 October, before dates in Cork, Newcastle, Birmingham, Swansea, Nottingham, Glasgow and Sheffield, before winding up with a mentalist gig in Letterkenny on 22 December. “One thing I’ve noticed at all of my Irish and UK shows is this really inclusive vibe and this feeling that everyone is part of a movement. This is what I want for the Erā parties; everyone is welcome and everyone’s a part of it. The parties belong to all of us. This is our time.This is our era.”–Rebūke
