“Behind The Mask / Here’s What You Do”

 

Following on from the Essential New Tune “Mercy Hump”…

 

Bordeaux and Brighton based DJ/Producer Thomas Gandey continues on in fine form with this his second double A-Side release of the year.

 

Behind The Mask’ and ‘Here’s What You Do’ is the second in a series of double A-Sides that follows the stunning ‘Get It On’ and ‘Mercy Hump’ which received high acclaim, notably Pete Tong naming ‘Mercy Hump’ as his Essential New Tune in March.

 

'Behind The Mask', is a throbbing tech drum workout, with psychedelic flourishes and a sleazy lead synth that all emanate into an insatiable hypnotic groove.

 

Here’s What You Do’ is an instant groover. A growling bassline, a monstrous kick drum and a pinch of funk, with synthesizers that weird the mind and control the body.

 

Thomas Gandey is usually known for his work under the moniker Cagedbaby, a masterful songwriter that crosses the boundaries between pop and tech-disco. However it’s his DJ style (an alluring mix of tough techno and sexy nu disco) that has further influenced what he does in the studio. Thomas Gandey’s residency at We Love Space (Ibiza) kicks off in June.
