Madeon – Finale

Madeon - Finale

It’s always a brighter day when Hugo Pierre Leclercq, who goes by the moniker Madeon, releases a new track that pushes the boundaries separating dance genres even further than his previous releases. And today, the day feels brighter than ever before.

Holding firm to his signature nu disco sound, Madeon breathes a gust of fresh air into the developing sound of drumstep in his theatrically grand “Finale“. Advised by American vocalist Nicholas Petricca to “brace yourself” for what is immediately to become a tremendous drop, “Finale” is a jet speed flight through color and electricity at the velocity of drum & bass with the half-time structure of dubstep that dismisses the grit of either genre. Instead of filth, the song is bathed in luscious retro leads, sumptuously refined vocals, and a hard-hitting drum loop that gives the recently parted Pendulum a run for what used to be their money.

The search for the ideal song to close any set or mix, with at least a dash of drum and/or bass, of course, has come to and end thanks to French prodigy Madeon. Grab his approved Bloc Rockin’ Beat currently available at Beatport and iTunes.
