ron trent presents ital foods / dublife
released in 2005 (atal music )
a. dub life (africa hi-fi vocal mix) 8.33
b. dub life (hi-fi- instrumental) 8.35
the record contains two versions: with vocal and instrumental. heavy drum with floating synth melodies coupled with vocal line (but it is more like poetry reading or narrative),and that's the vocal mix. instrumental mix was the one without vocal. oh, it started raining (by-talk). anyway, this is the one you can immerse yourself in it as the tracks are added some flavor of percussions. there is no breaks in the track and that's also the point where you can immerse yourself in it. but at the same time the tracks will bring you up when the hi-hat is added in the middle of the tracks.
i barely bought ron trent's stuff. when i bought his record record released from djax-up years ago, his styles was pretty much acid but hey, he has been realeasing wide variety range of styles. i will again pay close attention to his work.
ズンズンくるヘヴィーなドラムにマラカス、そして浮揚感のあるシンセにヴォーカル（というか語りのような感じ）が絡んだヴォーカル・ミックスとヴォーカルなしヴァージョン。あ、雨が降ってきた（余談）。とりあえずは、パーカッションも絡んだ「浸れる」一枚です。これといったブレイクがないところも、また浸れます。途中からハイハットが重なって持ち上げて行ってくれます。
ロン・トレントはあまり買ったことは無かったのですが、昔、djax-upからリリースしたときはバリバリのアシッドよりだったのにかなり幅広い曲調をリリースしてるみたいですね。これから再び注目していこうと思ってます。
