Coming hot off the trails of last week’s “Layers”, fans now get the B side of this Pryda release with “Rotonda.” This one has been a staple in Eric Prydz performances over the past two years, playing the role of mid-set bomb at shows such as Coachella, last year’s touring Identity Festival, and most recently at the main stage of Electric Daisy Carnival.
The track itself is as hard-hitting as it is soothing, with three-chord chimes layered under a siren deserving of the Kill Bill soundtrack. After a long build of a repeated melody, the track explodes into drum-driven progressive in classic Pryda fashion.
While it may not be all that common to have two weeks in a row with new Pryda releases, Eric himself has deemed 2013 to be the year of releases, so look for more from the various identities of Prydz in the coming months.
