NEW TRACK FROM HARD AS NAILS – SEAN GROTZ ‘ ASYLUM’
January 25, 2012 By SparxM Leave a Comment
New from Hard As Nails, from upcoming gazelle hunting South African artist SeanGrotz we present, ‘Asylum’ a Techno edged stomper. We love it but don’t take OUR word on it…..
Heres what a few had to say on this release instead of our obviously biased opinion!
Check out and buy this track from www.itunes.com and www.junodownload.com
Zoe Holborn’s (Boxed Digital) review:
If you had to think of Asylum as an image you would be thinking, derelict warehouse in the middle of nowhere surrounded by misty fog, barbed wire, blood and all sorts of other obscenities.
Asylum is DIRT NASTY! The thought of it makes you want to wash yourself with bleach!!!! It is disgustingly dark, evil and nasty.The demonic stabs run through it like shivers through your spine!! The bass is massively driving! The creepy vocal samples give it a gritty edge whilst the riff takes you up up and away!! The percussion in the track adds an industrial Shranz / Techno feel to it, which gives it the perfect balance of typical NRG and Techno.Revoltingly hard and dirrty!. . If you like your music disgustingly filthy then Asylum is an absolute MUST for YOU!
DJ NOTSTANDARD REVIEW
This is one of the best Hard Nrg tunes i’ve heard this year ..mental riffs and synths with a long amazing thumping bass line with thumping drum beats and clear high hits and screams, ,it just rolls a long smooth and the break down has some mental vocals in it along with amazing build up ,,,this a floor filler for definate and its one for any dj’s collection peace
REVIEW BY SYRUS – TOTALLY TRASHED MUSIC
Well were do I start with this track, the name says it all really.
from its twisted riffs and hard hitting bass line this guy well and truly knows the meaning of filth. This track really has a Grady G feel about the track if Mr Grotz hasn’t caught you yet with the build up and the kicking bass line then we will truly grab you on the vocal drop.
I give this track 10/10 for its unique take on NRG and bringing a great sound out of the South of Africa.
