Laidback Luke & Mike Cervello – Front 2 The Back [Barong Family]
For a few months. it really felt like no one would be attempting to revive classic Dutch house. The sound is unmistakable, and really gets a dancefloor going when its done well. That’s where Dutchmen Laidback Luke and Mike Cervello stepped in and they created a crazy Dutch house banger in the form of “Front 2 The Back”. This record finds a perfect home on Barong Family, which has proven from day No. 1 that it supports music of all genres at all times. The breakdown is just a stripped down version of the intro, but with a rap-like chorus building hype. That chorus is what also gives the track its name, and is a seriously important contributor to the buildup. Next, the drop comes into play with a heavy bass kick that has a very full-bodied sound. That is not the main attraction, though, as Laidback Luke and Mike Cervello bring loud Dutch house synths to “Front 2 The Back” to round out the unique sound. A few bars later, the producers then switch up the sound, and go with an even lower bass kick and a different chord progression to make “Front 2 The Back” a more dynamic tune. The Dutch house sound is something we really don’t hear enough of, and Laidback Luke and Mike Cervello did it perfectly on this record.
