regal: from other sounds

Regal, one of Madrid's hottest techno-exports, presents an EP comprising both new works and a re-interpretation by Radio Slave. The original and remix rub shoulders on the A-side, both revolving around its enticing vocal hook. While Regal employs a skipping beat and skittish percussion to conjure up an air of mystery, Radio Slave uncovers the track's slumbering lunatic qualities. On the B side, Regal operates in a framework that is a tad more housey than usual: snappy snares slice up the bubbling acid-line. "Slab" barges right in, wielding hefty drums and a bassline that oozes groove out of every loop.
