The supreme HI-LO returns to Drumcode to share another pair of exhilarating dancefloor gems. The techno alias of Oliver Heldens has found a home at Drumcode, dropping 'Hypnos' and 'WANNA GO BANG' EPs in consecutive years, while lending his touch to Adam Beyer & DJ Rush's 'Restore My Soul' last year. Meanwhile, he's been a welcome fixture of Drumcode's events at Miami WMC and The Warehouse Project.His return to Beyer's label is led by the mighty 'CRESCENDO'. The cut begins as an irresistible roller, before gradually building into throbbing peak-time composition, that's marked by a haunting synth progression that reinforces HI-LO's deft studio skill.It's accompaniment is the stirring 'OPEN YOUR MIND', a production HI-LO says was inspired by the great DK8 classic 'Murder Was the Bass', with a foot in both techno, electro and breakbeat camps and led by a ripping hoover.
