5ive & Samo DJ - Some Song Teachers

  • シェアする
  • With each successive release, Sweden's Sam Forsberg shows himself to be an adventurous producer whose wide-ranging tastes are matched by his willingness to collaborate with an international cadre of producers. He worked with Max Stenerudh as KWC 92 and on a recent album for Snaker, and paired with China's Tzusing on the juicy "Hollabackboi." He now partners with Takenori Goto from Tokyo's Cos/Mes. At first, the pounding kick and closed hi-hat of "Some Song Teachers" scans as the most straight-ahead, club-friendly track from either producer in a while. But a bubbling synth figure slowly moves up, a muffled drum tumbles in the background, and dubbed-out elements slide across the streamlined track. Just enough wooziness and texture is added to the pounding rhythm. "Dilemma," the squishy, ebullient B-side, edges "Teachers" out as the highlight. It also boasts a meaty kick, but even as video-game gurgle intensifies the thump, 5ive & Samo DJ keep things balanced. They sprinkle in a chopped xylophone sample and shimmering electric piano. Rather than making the melody heed the beat, they let it meander across the track, giving it just enough light.
