Halal Sol : Don’t Feel The Bass
Halal Sol
Don’t Feel The Bass
Be it on high-profile remixes (Charlie Lim’s Zero-Sum remix), or intuitive collaborations (Bongomann’s Deeperluv), Halal Sol’s immaculate live sets and brand of laid-back house grooves have established him as one of Singapore’s finest electronic producers. On his debut single, Don’t Feel the Bass, Halal Sol wields his beats at his best, creating a deep house cruise that pulsates along with a propulsive energy.
The track’s first half is dedicated to buildup, a driving interplay between synths and drums that imbues the classic Halal Sol house sound with a refreshing kineticism – it goes extra hard. As the track progresses, Sol unleashes a flurry of arpeggiated synths and boisterous beats, balanced by embellishments that demonstrate a polished sense of restraint. By the track’s last quarter, all the track’s elements reach a rapturous culmination that feels truly earned. It’s the producer’s juggling between Don’t Feel The Bass’s elements that make it truly dynamic – a puppet master of the dancefloor, it’s exciting to think what’s in store for us on his upcoming debut EP, and even more so his live sets in a post-pandemic world.
