Dulcie Caught a Cricket

The Colour & Pitch label head honcho Will Sumsuch arrives on 3bridge Records for his first release and we’re super excited about it. It’s a single with remixes by 3Bridge Records’ creative director Eric Shans and label regular, Gatto. Dulcie is Will’s spider friend and he thought it’d be appropriate to dedicate a song to her.

The original is a lovely foray into acid house. A precise drum pattern glues the track together with an exceptional 303 bass line that rips through the track. It’s echoed by dramatic strings, playful arpeggios, and an overall groovy palette. Eric’s remix takes those elements and adds some trademark cinematic touches while keeping the groove intact. There’s also an interesting vocal sample that describes a dialogue with a spider which is quite bizarre, yet captivating. And to close things out, Gatto’s ‘Spider’s on Acid Mix’ goes in a hypnotic tech direction with big percussion, fat low end, and walls of atmosphere.

Catch this great single and get your acid fix.
