Mancunian beat-magician David Roocroft has taken a slightly different approach on ‘Visions Of Garuda’, his latest release under the Leopard Of Honour moniker. Gone are the producer’s vocoder heavy tones which featured on previous drops; instead we’re gifted with breezy female vocal loops which melt like snowflakes on the hot bed of funked up bass oscillations, sweltering disco synth stabs and choppy percussion.
‘Visions Of Garuda’ is the breakout dancefloor anthem Leopard Of Honour has been threatening to create for over two years. Savour it.
