Cyrex
Marc Systematic returns to Crossing Over Records with Cyrex, an original production thats part techno, part progressive, part downtempo. This boundary-blurring track comes together in a giant melting pot of rolling basslines, rhythmic arpeggios and manipulated vocal samples, with a tempo that sits somewhere between hip hop and house. This unexpected take on Marcs usually pristine techno sound breaks new ground for this Ukranian producer, and brings with it the scope to suit almost any dance floor crowd. Label boss Jason Grey pulls together an unconventional remix of the Marc Systematic original with a track that showcases his versatility as a producer. With influences ranging from hip hop to bass driven downtempo, he weaves fluttering dubstep patterns into flickering melodic plucks, carrying the grimy rhythms into a synth heavy crescendo. The breakdown echoes hip-hop-inspired drums over a rich and organic melody that pushes the remix in new and exciting directions.
