Todd Terje: Spiral / Q 12″

Icy hot two tracker from the unstoppable Todd Terje! Ever since he started his own label it seems like Mr. Olsen has been on quite a tear. Every track he’s released has been an unquestionable floor filler. “Spiral” and “Q” serve to prove the point. Starting with the slow, percussive build of “Spiral” we move out into the cosmic territory that Terje has made his trademark. It owes a bit to the classic sounds of disco, but is tuned to today’s dancefloors. The real treat is on the flip, though. “Q” packs a funkier punch than its sister cut. Slightly more uptempo, it’s driven by a synth arpeggio that’s bound to worm its way into your head. Definite feel good vibes you wont forget. Recommended.
