Irish brothers Disfreq launch their new imprint Le Freq Recordings, kicking off with the single ‘The Limit’.
‘The Limit’ captures Disfeq’s in-your-face, synth-heavy techno sound, one that can create pure carnage in clubs. The energy fails to falter throughout, as various synths whirr out of control, a raw distorted acid bassline growls into view and the track’s vocal refrain, drives the energy to the max.
Here’s what Disfreq had to say:
“We stripped it back on this one without loosing our signature sound, we were playing around with new kick drum samples and wanted a kick that had a lot of attack and bite but also held its warmth a bit like the main synth lead, we wanted the track to feel like electricity in its purest form and came up with a vocal to compliment it, simplicity was always key in this one and it’s been really a stand out track in our live sets.”
Disfreq have featured on dance music’s hottest labels, including Solomun’s Diynamic, Eli Brown’s Arcane, Patrick Topping’s Trick, Tiga’s Turbo Recordings. This time, the duo bring their distinctive sound to their own label, the brand-new Le Freq Recordings.
‘The Limit’ follows Disfreq’s August-released two-track EP, ‘Turbo / Brotata’, which came out on Arcane Music. ‘Turbo’ is a colossal techno destroyer domineered by an alarm-like synth and a spoken vocal, while ‘Brotata’ is layered with crunching percussion and raw, haunting spectral synths.
To complete this EP, Disfreq released a music video for ‘Turbo’ in August. Directed by AI-focused Warsaw-based director Bengt Tibert, its black and white visuals depict a chaotic scene of bodies morphing and merging in a disturbing way – a perfect visual accompaniment to the track’s sinisterly spooky sonics.
This new single, ‘The Limit’, from Disfreq arrives as the Irish duo cruise effortlessly towards techno stardom. Now given the freedom to launch liberally through their label Le Freq Recordings, their sound is set to shake up dance music even further.
