Pleasurekraft – Sinister Strings [Kraftek]

Pleasurekraft was not messing around when he used the adjective “sinister” for the strings in this track. They’re dark, brooding, and when the track devolves into nothing but a few string instruments, things get pretty funky. But in a good way, it’s always nice to hear new uses of instruments in a track and a string quartet is definitely fresh. Also, the drop is pretty hardcore with a pumping bass, and a really tight high hat that comes in a few measures after the drop. All-in-all, a very interesting track with a fresh take on tech house.

As a little extra info, this is track is actually Pleasurekraft’s remake of a 90s house track: “Nightmare” by Brainbug. Give this and the original a listen!
