Title: Dive into Forever E.P.
Label: Self Release
Released: 23rd December 2013
This E.P.
seems to reach into new territories where the vocals of Ixchel Prisma are
really brought to the forefront. I wasn’t too sure about track one ‘Dive Into
The Core’ despite the Eastern sounding name the vocal was more Celtic sounding
to me, layered over a slowed down trance number which was reminiscent of
Delerium.
The second track
a re-work of ‘You Can See Forever’ (I often utilise the Deep Cave Mix in my sets) on
the other hand is sheer brilliance. The approach is completely different the
spacious ambient sounds are still there and my mind’s eye is back in the
desert. The vocal is extended and really brought to the forefront of the track, while the bouncy bass-line gives the impression it’s constructed for the dance floor. That is until it drops off and an extended focus on synth delays and vocals is laid
down like a magic carpet inviting you to soar into the sky as the bassline
returns.
The E.P.
closes with a bonus re-mix of Android Cartel’s ‘Wake Up Call’ who are an act I’m
not familiar with but I have to say this is great. It sounds like they’ve
dragged a soulful house number through the dub laboratory and haven’t spared
the bass.
