And just like that we hit TAU No. 50! To celebrate this milestone what else could we do but gather up an elite squad of our closest comrades, new and old, to deliver a huge new instalment of our Spektrum series. Spektrum 5 continues TAU’s quest to present the highest quality retrofuturism we can find, with an assorted cast of supremely talented artists all bringing their A-game for our beloved followers. So, here’s a breakdown of what to expect from this mouthwatering new compilation… This 15-track odyssey begins with ‘Sandstorm’ by Aikon. The Ukrainian producer blends emotive musicality and unusual melodies with an aggressive undertone. The beats pump, and the main motif entrances the listener. The breakdown envelops us in its mystique and we enter the second half of the track full of vigour. Label mainstay Ditian steps up next with ‘Mila’, a sultry cut with a heartrending riff and melancholy bass. This one will tug on your heartstrings, as Ditian rolls out with captivating progression and skillful arrangement. Wait until those strings drift in towards the latter part of the track… A beauty. Enzo Elia gets us into a deep groove with ‘Daddi’, an enchanting cut with a dense, hypnotic low end. The soft, wistful vocals add a distinct human element which penetrate your mainframe and keep you hooked throughout. Mystical elements give this cut its unique appeal. This is followed by ‘Nadie’, from Last Men On Earth & Agustin Giri, a minimal cut with vibrant female vocals. The production is unorthodox, giving this one plenty of character. A stand out, and indicative of TAU’s ethos, to keep pushing the boundaries of dance floor oriented music.
