Umek has two decades of global touring and powerful production under his belt , and the always-so-original Pleasurekraft is known for his mode of production and distinct styles in the tech-house genre – When these two collab, there is sure to be tension as to who will dominate style over the other . But “Korea” is a perfect collab that does not undermine but boost’s the other’s calibre.
Umek begins with minimal percussive lead before swirls of synths that breakdown into infectious rhythms. Pleasurekraft’s dancey influence can also be felt throughout the track, with those strechy basslines and luminous chord progressions that carries the backbone of the track.
We know tech-house isn’t the most popular EDM genre, but it’s popularity is rapidly growing around the world, and people like Pleasurekraft and Umek are a major reason why.
This track is a ear worm !
