this is the first of many posts about what’s for us one of the freshest, hottest emerging piece of french talent in the electro scene at the moment…
at first Kolt13 may strike you as your penny-a-dozen neu dance acts, but as you listen to the his own work and his remixes - and he’s rather prolific at that! check his remix page- you start to appreciate the simple complexity of his production, with enough to keep your ears filled and your brain busy but all working on top of a simple yet masterful harmonic loop skeleton, working very much like a top notch track by Mr Oizo… with a previous background in hiphop, if these are Kolt13’s first few steps into electro, we can’t wait to listen to what he’ll be doing in a few months! make sure to check his ’space for more!
as a starter, try the sweet-n-sour, highly addictive Thunder… starts with a bang and goes with a melodic surprise… moreish!
then as a main course we suggest his rework of The Kickdrums‘ Love is a Drug… delighfully synth-filled, chunky, warming, full bodied, best put on your iPod immeditely after Thunderand kept on repeat… absolutely perfect... long live Kolt13!
