Blue Daisy & Anneka - Raindrops

Having built a platinum reputation as one of the most exciting beatmakers working today, the incomparable Blue Daisy
returns with another burst of poly-genre sound adventure in the form of the Raindrops EP. With his debut album waiting
in the wings in early 2011, this is the last chance to cherish our boy before his star turns supernova...

For the Raindrops EP Daisy has employed the considerable talents of Brighton siren Anneka and the pairing is a match made in heaven. On the titular track her ghostly vocals float in and of focus through the sparkling arpeggios, swirling crackle and tape hiss, all crushed by 10 tonnes of compressed sound pressure, while 'Blood Petal Roses' heads for a fog covered dancefloor - 4/4 rhythms are submerged into Blue Daisy’s sonic murk while Anneka adds wistful swathes of vox to an unlikely dancefloor number.

Another producer no stranger to hype is Barcelona's John Talabot, who picks up the remix baton and runs for the hills -
turning the introspective, stargazing original into a gorgeous, woozy dancefloor workout - burbling pads and percolating percussion underpinning Anneka's helium treated vocals for what must surely be a contender for re-rub of the year. Also stepping up to the plate is long time electronic front runner Sunken Foal - his remix treatment coming on like an arc of sunlight through the clouds - adding clarity and sparkle to the mix, plunging the depths of low-end while simultaneously
reaching angelic highs.
