If you’re on the hunt for some quality Liquid DnB music straight out of New Zealand, this track is about to become your song of 2024! It’s called Mac Summer – Revitalise, and it’s a euphoric, high-energy take on the genre that’s being released via Tonelux Records. Given the credentials of the artist behind the song, it’s not surprising it’s a straight up banger either; Summer has been described as a driving force in the global Liquid DnB scene, with previous releases such as Suddenly the Rain and Hands in Our Tills racking up hundreds of thousands of listens and continuing to remain popular among fans of the DnB scene.
Mac Summer – Revitalise, meanwhile, is a shining example of the genre, with its sound built around old school breakbeats, lush melodic pads and amped up sub bass. As with many Liquid DnB songs, it starts off slowly with heavily atmospheric undertones, building the tension with some beautifully layered pads and soaring melodies. More and more layers are gradually built up – hissing percussion, big, soulful vocal samples and some heavily EQ’d bass – before a huge drop hits us with a jolt of passion and euphoria. From here the track grows and grows in energy, remaining powerful and emotional as the sound and the production on the vocal samples gets bigger and bigger. Another more melodic section follows, bringing us back down to earth for a second, before lifting off again via some frantic breakbeats and pulsing synths.
Mac Summer – Revitalise is a top-quality example of a 2024 song coming out of the Liquid DnB music scene in New Zealand at the moment. With it’s euphoric highs, emotional, melodic breaks and super high-energy drops, the track is not only a perfect representation of the genre, but also of the talent that Summer so has and so clearly knows how to use.
