Whilst scouring the net earlier this week we came across this 63m 22secs of mixing perfection by ‘Aus Music‘ owner Will Saul.
Will Saul is an artist who started out as progressive house was going through its final death throws and the likes of Get Physical were picking up the slack. At that time you had two emerging genres beginning to vie for supremacy. On the one side you had the noisy indie electro sound and on the other the cleaner stripped back techy house sound. Around 04/05 these two sounds had considerable cross over with certain tracks helping propel both genre’s in their respective directions. Tracks that perhaps exemplify this cross over are Tiga’s Burning Down the House, DJ T’s Timeout, Mandy vs Booka Shade Body Language, Spektrum Kinda New (Tiefschwarz Remix) and or course Alter Ego’s Rocker . Despite Electro’s tempting profile Will Saul stayed true to his stripped back melodic sound, and it would now seem that the industry is embracing this also with ever increasing verve. You only have to look at whose released on Aus Music to understand what we mean: Ramadanman, SCB, Midland, Joy Orbison, Appleblim, and George Fitzgerald.
