Pal-E to the label for his debut EP. Arpit Paliwal a.k.a Pal-E has long been one of India’s most recognized DJs, having shared the booth with Guy J, Cid Inc, Petar Dundov, and more. As a producer, the Jaipur resident first emerged in 2016 with ‘Magical Mount Kailash’ released via Michael A’s Genesis Music. The progressive-minded release caught the attention of fans and tastemakers alike, eventually leading to a follow-up for the label and additional projects for AH Digital, Asymmetric Recordings, and Modern Agenda. Now adding Movement Limited to his resume, Pal-E debuts on the label with ‘Nemesis’.
Beginning with the title selection, Pal-E aims squarely at a peak-time dance floor with one of his biggest productions to date. Backed by punchy beats and a warm, rolling groove it’s got infectious energy from the outset. Its powerful drive is encased by a perfect balance of electric rhythms and finely-tuned percussion and cosmic motifs. Nostalgic chord changes gently elevate mood while bringing greater emotional depth as the main break approaches. Wavy arps rise across the interlude, complete with a metallic tinge and flowing through tension-filled modulation as the groove drops for a headstrong finale.
Moving on to selection two, the journey continues with the chugging vibes of ‘Blue Edges’. Immediately captivating, its muscular bassline, hopeful tones, and creamy atmospheres make for a groovy first act. Rolling percussion and pensive overlays play off the well-carved low end, making for an irresistible, hip-swinging groove leading into the break. Glowing swells and dynamic overlays create a colorful canopy of sound as the centerpiece evolves, building anticipation toward an uplifting final movement.
Release date: May 27th, 2022.
