Some grooves catch your attention. Others have a way of getting under your skin before you’ve even realised what’s happening. Soulfeed’s ‘Like You’ does exactly that — and it’s a fine way for the Israeli duo to make their first appearance on Déepalma Records.
Built around a rolling organic house groove and a bassline with serious weight behind it, the track has an immediate pull. A commanding female vocal brings the attitude, while atmospheric guitar licks and beautifully placed synths add colour, depth and a little mystery to the mix. Everything has room to breathe, yet the groove never lets up. It’s the sort of production that draws you in slowly, then suddenly has you wondering where the last five minutes went.
For Soulfeed, the connection runs deeper than simply making people dance. Elad and Oren have been drawn to music since childhood, with a particular love for live instruments, synthesizers and the creative possibilities that emerge when different sounds find their place together. That musical curiosity shines through in ‘Like You’, where organic textures meet a driving rhythm and a vocal that gives the whole record its own personality.
The result? A track that feels equally at home during a balmy outdoor session as it does when the night takes a deeper turn. There’s warmth, there’s muscle, and there’s just enough melodic intrigue to keep you coming back for another listen.
Soulfeed have arrived on Déepalma, and they haven’t come empty-handed. Put ‘Like You’ on, turn it up and let that bassline do the talking.
