We are proud to bring you Voodoo Music 002. After the success of debut release from head honcho Raiden, Voodoo comes correct once more for the second release. Two tracks from Raiden & Khanage that contrinue the ongoing collaborative partnership between the pair that has seen releases on Renegade Hardware & Offkey- and now its the turn of V002. The tracks have been supported by Doc Scott, Loxy, Rockwell, Data amongst others.
Amnesia Haze
The track began life at 2am on a pitch black winters night in Tallinn after Raiden & Khanage had been worked on ‘King Stays King’ and the ‘Mirage Remix’. After a break in studio time listening to Jeff Mills’ most abstract works the track began to roll out. Guided by the substance that the track takes its name from the pair wanted to create a brooding, sinister tribal banger- and without a doubt achieved this. Pounding sub bass, rolling percussion and haunting strings all add to the picture, the word Voodoo could not be more any appropriate when it comes to Amnesia Haze. The track ignited the flame that is voodoo music.
8798
Encouraged by the reactions to ‘Haze’ Raiden & Khanage followed up with 8798- The perfect tune to pair with Haze. The track carries a stark vibe, driven by percussion, tense drum work and accents and effects that further add to the landscape of the track. In contrast to the textures of ‘Haze’,’8798’ carries on a single minded mission. Underpinned by a bass that is 50,000 leagues below- 8798 moves along with weighty confidence as a result of the rumbling frequency. The brief was very clear from the very beginning for these two tracks- to come with something that was unmistakeably voodoo, bringing you a complete picture of what the label represents, and without having to put that into anymore words than we have already- We think you know.
