Eagles Prey - Tonto's Drum

Frontosa, Oct 29, 2007

This is a stellar, stellar, amazing, beautiful, uplifting, bangin track!! Just lovely, yet frenetic and hands in the air too.

This song has elements of middle eastern singing, floating synths, textured layers of rhythms and a breakbeat on top of that. But the best thing about this record is the way it builds. More and more levels of breakbeats come in as the track progresses, as well as the vocal samples building too, and to top it all off, a whooshing kinda sound that flies right over your head every 16 beats.

Beatuiful piano thrown in on top of this. But this record has an underground quality to it, very sure of itself, not trying to be anything its not.
Confused yet? Just get this record if youre a fan of slower progressive house thats a little trancey and a little housey too. Sasha used to play this way back when.
