Fine French Fare Maelstrom comes to Ambar !

maelstrom

If Maelstrom’s music were a food, it would be the highly prized black truffle! His brand of nu- electro breakbeat is a rare delicacy in a country fed on Neu Disco and French House. Part of a select group of French producers that are pushing breakbeat sound boundaries, Maelstrom’s music is receiving massive support from DJ Zinc, Elite Force, Heavyfeet, Aquasky, DJ Icey and Rico Tubbs.

The open format of Breakbeat allows Maelstrom to synthesize all of the styles and sounds of which he has previously produced, played and loved throughout his career. This, combined with the fact he had found himself at the forefront of a new scene in France, allowed him the liberty to be creative and adventurous with his work and inspired him to create what is now unique recognised as the Maelstrom sound: “Funky rhythms sampled from Soul and R&B music archives, layered with loud, phat basslines, a tough electro styled groove with a straight-up Breakbeat swagger.”

His bass is deliciously tweaked, twiddled and warped to within an inch of its life. Maelstrom’s sound is unashamedly French and freakin’ cool – described as bouncy, skippy 4/4, breaky, choppy, mashed-up – all with a catchy lead synth.

This night will leave you warm and dripping like wax from the walls of the Home of the Underground. Splattered with well-known samples from a class of super-cool dance history, this is ‘Real Street Shit’ alright.
