Soft Crash - Free Yourself ft. Ready in LED

Single

9 Jan

Soft Crash is the fabulous brainchild of Pablo Bozzi and Phase Fatale, two artists at the forefront of the Italo-disco and EBM worlds. Both have ventured heavily into the industrial realms of techno. Yet, now, with the Soft Crash moniker, they aim to bring more life and vibrancy back to dance music. The up-and-coming EP the illustrious pair promises is titled NRG (2024), coming to Phase Fatale's Bite imprint on February 2nd. In preparation for the release, the duo have released 'Free Yourself ft. Ready in LED', a whirlwind of explosive Italo energy channels synth-wave and disco into a pure dance floor filler. The 80s snare echoes with promises of a belter from the outset, and Soft Crash is happy to provide. The trio are at the peak of their powers on this one as rhythmic groove infect the bassline, adding an undeniable swagger to the record. They effortlessly emulate the kitschy melodrama of synth-pop while keeping a stunning authenticity, like letting her down after working all week in your cubicle. Vocal arpeggios run rampant, surrounding the potent synths, adding dimension to an already stellar vocal performance by Olya Dibrova, otherwise known as Ready in LED, especially as she captures this beautiful balance between belting out in the shower and having true vocal talent. Every single ounce of this single ooze of fun and good times. The extended mix feels as though it's capable of closing almost any party to massive fanfare. If I were you, I'd keep my eyes peeled for February 2nd, as Soft Crash guarantees an excellent party.
