DEMUR – Tell Me Your Secrets
Back in December 2015, a mysterious Facebook account popped up under the name DEMUR and posted a controversial image of Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike. The duo had been recently awarded the number one spot on DJ Mag‘s Top 100 but DEMUR appeared to be strongly against it. The image sent a sarcastic message referring to the duo as “DJs” in scare quotes.
The caption to the Facebook post read, “the Emperor’s New Clothes. Is it just me, or are all the cheesy big room DJs basically the same?” DEMUR returned nine days later with a depiction of a factory labeled “Dutch DJ Cloning Facility.” Fast forward to 2017 and the Los Angeles based producer continues the battle with his latest production titled ‘Tell Me Your Secrets‘.
The track sounds like it could’ve been a part of the movie score “Prometheus” or “Mad Max” thanks to its heavy bass and eerie samples. Known for delivering “anti-ghost producer” messages in his music, DEMUR keeps theme going with this track. The siren-like guitar coupled with the vocal sample and heavy bass give it a grungey rock vibe that I find quite polarizing. Listen below and keep an eye out for more material from the man on a mission.
