S3A offers up ‘The Ravist’ EP via the fledgling French imprint Community Center, comprised of four original cuts from the Parisian producer.
Community Center: ‘’After the release of a first heavily Belgian infused wacky EP by Pasteur & Tsy, the young Parisian imprint Community Center pursues its radical and ecstatic take on dance music. For COMCEN002, godfather S3A delivers four unfettered tracks, perfectly designed for the raves we miss so much. Indeed, after more than a decade releasing tracks here and there under his alias The Ravist, the great master has finally dedicated an entire EP to his love for the craziness of early jungle, vicious breaks and iconic elements originating from the hardcore continuum. Beyond being a tribute to this era and an aesthetical statement, these four tracks combine an undeniable taste for banging beats, with the iconic dexterity which turns each and every S3A production into something special in the global club landscape. Don’t doubt that this furious and explosive EP is a genuine manifesto for a universally joyful music, fully dedicated to the dancefloor communion.’’
‘Speaking To My Niche’ leads, laying down crunchy breaks, classic rave stabs and a snaking bass groove before ‘3 & Extended CDJ Friendly Beat’ follows, shifting focus to a dynamic drum groove and gritty stab sequences alongside cinematic strings and distorted bass tones.
‘Law & Panic’ leads on the flip-side with hip house vocal chants, bumpy bass stabs, winding synth melodies and shuffled drums. Generation Waikiki then wraps things up with a swinging 909 groove, heady chords and an amalgamation of choppy sample throughout.
