Joris Voorn goes deep techno on I Ran The Zoo
- Hot new track comes in digital and analog mixes
- Released on his Green imprint
Listen here to I Ran The Zoo, the analog version, on SoundCloud.
Having earned worldwide acclaim for his vinyl only set during the 20th anniversary of Awakenings, preparing for a special summer in Ibiza and with a new Spectrum night coming up in Barcelona on June 14th, Joris Voorn now returns with another sterling release on his Green label.
I Ran The Zoo is a lesson in stripped-back contrast and subtlety, with an acidic groove bleeping away over driving percussion and delicate atmospherics in the Digital Version, the tension growing with every thud of the kick drum. A dizzying breakdown raises the bar with snare rolls and dramatic pads, with the wide-open space therein soon sucked back into the void when the beat drops back in.
Meanwhile the special Analog Version harks back more to Joris’ techno sound of old. The throbbing kick and bass and acid blips are set against rising, white-noise drenched synth swells and simple percussion to create something moody and tough yet teasingly pared back.
These two heads-down mixes make this release a stark contrast to some of his more melodic, riff-fuelled releases of late, once again demonstrating his endless versatility and shape-shifting abilities.
Catch Joris on tour this month in Novi Sad (RS) on May 26, Prague (CZ) on May 27 and Playa d’en Bossa (ES) on May 28 and at festivals as Amsterdam Open Air, Wildlife Festival and Awakenings Festival where he’s hosting his own Spectrum stage.
Joris Voorn ‘I Ran The Zoo’ will be released via Green on May 26.
