PRODUCT DETAILS
Originally released on vinyl in 2020 and long out of print, we're happy to announce the 2026 repress of Black Loops' 'Something Special' EP, now including the previously digital-only track 'The Melody'.Black Loops returned to Freerange for the follow up release to his 2018 EP entitled '7Hills', one of the label's biggest vinyl sellers at the time and another reminder of why Riccardo Paffetti is one of the most consistent and prolific house producers on the scene. With releases on Madhouse, Toy Tonics, Neo Vinyl, and Traxx Underground, as well as remixes for the likes of Waajeed, Tender Games, and Joey Negro, Black Loops continues to be in high demand and has resulted in a packed DJ schedule taking him from South Africa to Australia, from the US to Asia as well as playing regularly in Europe and his home city of Berlin.For his 'Something Special' release Black Loops treated us to three original tracks (with a fourth added for the digital package, now on the 2026 vinyl repress) which will pleased his regular followers whilst showing a development to his sound. His trademark shuffling beats, warm bouncing basslines and analog pads are all present and correct. Tracks that feel deceptively simple and minimal enough to sound lovely on big sound systems, but which also offer enough depth and musicality to touch the soul and connect with on a deeper level. But... we can also hear some fresh sound design coming into play, punchy FM synths cutting through the mix, some more delicate melodies and rolling arrangements which unfold gently and draw you into their warm confines.Tracklisting:A1.
