Sander van Doorn & Gregor Salto – Tribal [Doorn Records]

Groovy house has made an incredible comeback, and Sander van Doorn and Gregor Salto have teamed up for one massive track. “Tribal” came together when Gregor Salto sent a work-in-progress tune to Sander van Doorn, and they managed to come up with the perfect way to finish it. It took them just a few hours, but the track itself is much more complex than the studio time might lead you to believe. “Tribal” is all about the nuances, and Sander van Doorn and Gregor Salto have worked in plenty. The first drop kicks off with a rather simple construction; just a bass kick and some snares. But as it progresses, the two producers work in a multitude of 303-style synths. The breakdown is definitely where this record derives its name. An energetic segment filled to the brim with tribal vocals serves as the perfect connector between the two drops. The second drop brings back those acid-influenced synths, and keeps up the tribal vibes with that very same pounding bassline. Sander van Doorn and Gregor Salto have got themselves a huge record for the summer here, so expect to hear this one played out just about everywhere.
