Sam Hopgood
Flow / Undulation
SEL 155
Release date July 8th, 2022
What do we want? Colossal tuneage! When do we want it? Now!!
Well, pleasure to be of assistance, step right this way…
We, the custodians of all things Seladorian, purveyors of only the good stuff, are delighted to welcome Mr Sam Hopgood back aboard the good ship Selador. Hot on the heels of his stellar contributions to our last two Showcase Compilation releases (‘Waiting’ on 2021’s ‘The 14th Adventure’ / ‘Trust’ on our 2022 opener ‘The Phenomenal 15th’), the man from Melbourne now steps up with own solo double header.
“Two tracks with simple melodic motifs that twist, bend and build into epic dance floor moments,” is how Sam himself describes the choice cuts you have before you and boy, does he deliver.
Contemporary club music of the highest order, ‘Flow’ gets down to business from the get-go. As Sam says, it twists, bends and builds like a theme park ride on acid – well, Sam said the first bit, we embellished 😉
‘Undulation’ then brings a crisp metallic sheen with a pulsing synth line leading the charge before sci-fi squelches and muted vocal clips enter the fray and the whole deal gets bent in and out of shape. All beautifully executed.
Yowsah.
Team Selador – in full flow
