To the beat of the drum, Sinisa Tamamovic leads SCI+TEC
Digital Audio. His debut EP for Dubfire’s label is proof that
forging dirty organic drum sounds to ultra-clean rhythms
can have explosive results. Human-created percussion
always seems to carry a certain va-va-voom, or joie de
vivre – like the sound of free drums on a beach – and as
such, there is more than a hint of summer about the
‘Waking Up’ EP.
Lead track ‘Waking Up’ is a straight-talking jacker.
Tamamovic, who is clearly a fan of layering cut up vocals
rhythmically, uses snippets of a male voice to entice the
groove down a funky path. When he quickly switches the
vox with a heavy percussion loop on the drop, the results
are pretty merry.
‘Little People’ is perhaps the most carnival offering on the
four tracker. With big samba drum rolls, a male vocal
chant that sounds suspiciously like Buddhist monks
harmonizing with the universe, and a cut-up childlike
vocal sample, it absolutely hums of Ibiza’s outdoor
terraces. The large drum-filled breakdown and increase in
pace and tension just before the drop is rough and
slightly off point, like an overenthusiastic DJ had played
with the delay FX on a mixer before throwing the bass in
again. All the while, the monk’s ‘Ohming’ keeps the cut
firmly in the realm of a hedonistic crowd fuser.
The aptly titled ‘The Drums’ sees Tamamovic’s unique
approach to percussion fully charged with an absolute
mutiny of track. The cut features gritty snares that
snowball through the solid techno groove. The way
Tamamovic plays with the different rhythms on ‘The
Drums’ is impressive – he moves from moments of quiet
head nodding to animated sections of fist pumping using
nothing but drums. They way he pushes the tension and
atmosphere skywards with subtle tweaks of the FX and
samples is elegant - certainly the track proves he has a
perceptive mind about how cadences move people.
The final offering on the EP, ‘The New Generation’ is a
little more up-tempo and a bit more techno. With a lead
that sounds like a jet engine forever powering up, the
hard hitting DJ tool is positively explosive thanks to a
succession of Space Invader bleeps in the huge
breakdown, and a white noise symphony on the drop. It’s
loud and proud.
There are wonderful tweaks of the bass throughout the
cut, which guide it to moments of uproar. And like the A
side, the core of ‘The New Generation’ is a beat
consisting of crude drum samples precisely placed – an
infectious mix for your feet.
