Brazilian duo Felguk may not get fair recognition when the phrase “international superstar” gets thrown around, but their resume to date proves nothing less. With a presence as one of their home country’s top exports, the pair have started to make noise through collaborations with other worldly producers, such as Infected Mushroom, Spencer & Hill, and Yves V. While their pulsating brand of electro house requires frequent innovation to ensure a fresh sound, their latest single “Crunch” delivers exactly that.
This one is a true throwback to the electro boom of five years ago. With a guitar-based distorted synth, “Crunch” immediately reminds listeners of the funky yet throbbing sounds MSTRKRFT used to be known for, seen in the modern day through artists like Lazy Rich or Hot Mouth. On the breakdown, Felguk pulls in a dancehall influenced vocal sample that skates over an acid techno beat, eventually exploding again into big-room electro bliss. Look for “Crunch” to be a perfect connector track between well-know productions from bigger DJs. With no lyrics and a crisp melody, this one could be the secret weapon for major names of the main stage.
