Based in Amsterdam – Transvorm is an outfit run by Dutch artists El Mundo and Mulder. The aim of the project is simple: to touch on myriad shades of dance music while keeping things firmly rooted in the principles of timeless House & Techno.
The first release comes courtesy of Mulder himself and evinces this core principle as the title track ‘Burnin’ brings together 80s synths, syncopated drums and an earworm vocal. ‘Move Away’ also works from a class House rubric with its Jazz-tinged chords, dusty drum work and vocal snips.
Some vintage strings bleed in to kick off a second phase of the track before an esteemed member of the French House elite – Franck Roger – brings things to a close. Shades of dub and a raw, punchy groove are rendered to a crisp finish as the first chapter in an enlivening new project is brought to a close.
