DJ Sun
DJ SUN's new release is the first single off a forthcoming album, due in Spring 2011, entitled “One Hundred”. The new single features two songs that reflect back to an era of production that emphasized the analogue elements which DJ SUN has used to stamp his signature in production. A midtempo head-nodder, “Fun” keeps a steady beat while employing a 70's atmospheric feel to the melody structure. The flipside “Bus”, at the same tempo, employs some 70's horns while the driving beat is enhanced by familiar guitar riffs.
