Tom Demac – Stand Beside Me Single Review

Tuesday, November 18th, 2008 | Music, Single Review

Geddes and label MurMur must have a broken quality tap somewhere in their headquarters because that blasted thing is releasing a constant stream of quality tracks. Release five sees rising star Tom Demac grease the wheels of future juggernaut label.

Tom has two tracks on this release. Title track Stand Beside Me is a moody tech house plodder which has a mildly sinister groove punctuated with outbursts of hi hat percussion that are sure to prevent those crowds from gormlessly swaying. Three by Four is the other track from Tom Demac. It has clunky beats, round basslines and an aggressive saw synth with a few muted bleeps and tones chucked in for good measure. Its progressive in nature with enough reverberation to make you feel hungry.

Head honcho Geddes remixes the title track by reigning in the loop lengths making it snappier and punchy. It shuffles along nicely but misses the outbursts of the original. Its typically Geddes and that means dark, techy and dubby. As the ambassador always says, “Excellente”.
