Tromino returns with ‘Silver Lines’ EP – following huge ‘Larry & The Drum Machine’ release !

Following on from August’s incredible Titled / Larry and the Drum Machine, West Midlands producer and DJ Tromino brings you his superb double header Silver Lines / Protect [2024] available from 11th October.

Look at a domino and you’ll see two equal sections making the whole. Listen to Tromino and you will hear three – Detroit, Chicago and Acid House, all equally important and expertly combined. Tromino’s trademark ‘Power of 3’ style has made a big impact in the clubs, receiving support from the likes of Da La Swing, Joyce Muniz, Cevin Fisher, Nic Fanciulli, Jamie Jones and Disciples. In fact, Tromino is such a skilled soundsmith, he features in Bill Brewster’s seminal book How To DJ Properly sharing a section with Carl Cox.

The first track, Silver Lines steps straight up to the plate with a fat, juicy drumline, minimoog style kick bass with a thwacking hi-hat joined by an infectious rhythm on toms. Silver Lines grows every four lines in a way that guarantees to keep your feet on the dance floor. Then comes the breakdown and everything twists around, bringing you back to some serious throbbing action. The first time that you hear Silver Lines on a big system and feel the vibrations travelling through your body, you realise this is a tune where you don’t just hear the music, you feel it too.

Tromino tells us more: “Silver Lines is a very dubby affair, built from samples by Mella Dee He released the parts he had worked on at Devon Analog Studios and they were fat and meaty. The drums and toms give it such a nice groove. The pads have that nice 90’s vibe in there too.

Track two, Protect [2024] arrives in full-on-attack-mode, an intricate, almost military beat marching you to the dancefloor before reconstructing itself with a killer bassline into a very special groove. The chopped vocal samples and synth line shove you into Tromino’s tardis and back out into a sweat drenched ‘90s club. Protect is pure fun, designed for one place: the dancefloor.

Tromino explains: ‘The original version of Protect was released in lockdown and was well supported. (John Digweed, Darren Emerson, Solardo Sam Devine.) But Protect was designed for fervid dancefloors, not Covid podcasts, so here it is, reworked for the club vibe.

Just as you put your festival gear back in the loft, Protect [2024], edited and fine-tuned to purr on big club sound systems, welcomes you back to the dark, writhing dancefloors with open arms.

If you are playing a set or twenty this autumn, and if you want to fill the dancefloors Make sure you have Silver Lines / Protect [2024] in your box this autumn. Otherwise, crank up that volume dial and invite all of your friends round. This is the sound of Autumn 24.
