Emika_Double Edge (Incl. Pinch Remix)


All the hype around Ninja Tune's new darling, Emika, is clearly justified with this dark treat featuring a crushing remix from Pinch. 'Double Edge' is probably the most forward thinking pop track we've heard all year, that is if you like your pop dark like a Berlin backstreet at 4am in the middle of December. Quite remarkably, the track is also credited with additional production from Rashad Becker, aka one of the most revered mastering and cutting engineers in the world. She's only the second person after Tin Man to be honoured with such an accomplished presence as far as we know. Not to play down Emika's contribution, but this surely accounts for the enhanced bass quake and truly vast spatial dynamics created within. It also offers Pinch some really juicy meat to work with on his mix, embellishing the track with a stony-faced chill and fragmenting the vocals into digitized glossolalia. One listen to the sample should have you hooked...
