The fourth release on Social Problem see Mat Playford join forces with old friend and house music legend Sandy Rivera under their Tube Tech guise. Thrown together by a chance meeting, Playford and Rivera have shared a musical development over the last 14 years. Whether writing music together or DJing on the same bill, the pair enjoy a unique bond that comes across in the music they make together
In it’s original form, The Balance punches and shimmers along at a healthy lick. Melodic and driving it encapsulates the sound of late night dancefloors. Tough but swinging beats are married with aggressive but grooved out stabs to create a hybrid sound relevant to the sound of now.
Mat steps up himself to provide an alternative mix that takes the track on a Giorgio Moroder like excursion via a jacking, chopped up electro groove and some seriously mind-warping distorted synths. Part cosmic, part techno; Playford’s remix hits all the right notes for 2009 dancefloors.
