Kinnerman – Promised Land [Kaluki]
When the buzz around a track that only a handful of DJs have is deafening, you know that it’s going to be something special. Dropped into the hands of a select few, including Richy Ahmed, Detlef, Pirupa, Mark Jenkyns, De La Swing, Solardo and Pirate Copy, Kinnerman’s Promised Land is turning heads wherever it gets played.
“This track came about so fast to me – well, to be honest, the actually melody I wrote last year when my manager was pushing me for lots of new material but I forgot about it, then I came back to it a few months ago and the track was produced in a couple of hours. It happened so fast and naturally, but I couldn’t stop playing it over and over again, every producer has one of those magic days where anything you do just works perfectly and that was one of those days! Everywhere I play it the crowd go crazy!” – Kinnerman
With releases already on ElRow, VIVa, Origins Rcrds and Glasgow Underground, Kinnerman drops his most accomplished and biggest single to date on Kaluki Musik entitled ‘Promised Land‘. Returning to the label with a certified banger that’s already causing a stir within clubland, Kinnerman demonstrates he’s definitely a name to watch.
“The main lead is actually an old rave stab that I found in my sample library, I put it through simpler in Ableton and programmed the keys in to create the melody. The bassline is from the Moog Sub 37 and most of the drums from Maschine. The vocal was a Martin Luther King speech which I sampled. Lots of other bits are from routing through outboard equipment to give it that extra umphhhhhh for the dancefloor!” – Kinnerman
