Addictive two tracker out now – Get it HERE
Goom Gum drop compulsive two-track EP Everybody Do Clap on Drumcode’s melodic techno sibling after their Truesoul debut in August 2023 with “Set & Setting.” The duo’s skilful deployment of chord progressions, heavy basslines and trance elements have attracted sustained support from label boss Adam Beyer, and also found favour with Solomun, Tale of Us, Dubfire…
Such well-deserved attention has also won the duo releases on Afterlife, Zamna, Tomorrowland Music as well as Truesoul and their own Avtook imprint. In under a decade as a duo, they’ve also snagged a place in The Future Of Dance 101 Top Producers 2024 (1001 Tracklists).
Everybody Do Clap has a bounding, clappy beat with a huge breakdown to keep ravers on their toes as a processed male vocal title riff soars over rising sirens before a beat of silence and The Drop. A fuzzy melodic phrase manages to be spacey but with an organic, soulful vibe as it duets with juddering industrial notes and stabs like a call and response. Powerful, intriguing, with heart as well as energy.
“Nicotine” creates a futurist soundscape with doppler hoover swoops and judders, contrasted with a hopping pizzicato melody becoming more plangent as another monster breakdown builds to a matching drop via a female vocal title riff rising to urgency. Driving beats complete a gripping experience – it’s got to be said, it’s addictive.
Goom Gum have had a great year with shows inc. Tomorrowland, Ushuaïa Ibiza, Techmission Festival (Prague), Madhouse Beirut, plus dates in Mexico, Georgia, Hungary… Moving on to their Asia tour inc. India, Egypt and Thailand, so with Everybody Do Clap as well, they deserve a round of applause.
