Palette Recordings celebrates its 13 year anniversary with a release by the duo that started it all for the label. No giant mix compilation or collection of remixes, just another example of what has built the foundation of Palette over the last 13 years. John Tejada & Arian Leviste have been collaborating for over 18 years now. With this release the duo in a way come full circle, combining some of their oldest production techniques with newer ones. Its been a long road for these 2 seeing styles and trends change, equipment and technology come and go over the years, but what has remained a constant is their vision of electronic music. >Messenger< with its subtle intro of modular synths and rhythmic pads breaks out of its sinister drop full force into a multi dimensional crowd pleaser. The stabs continue to build energy while layered drum programming and modulating synth lines escalate the tracks energy. On the flip, >Observer< continues with a fierce pace that harkens back to the days of Palette 4, combining vintage synth stabs and drum machines recreating that classic vibe which is gaining such momentum again these days. The difference here is these guys were around at the time already releasing music that would garner them such high acclaim over the years.
