The French DJ/producer LORAN teams up with Daniel Orpi for a brand-new collaboration for Richy Ahmed’s Four Thirty Two label, and British juggernaut Skream is on hand with a belter of a remix.

Both now based in London, LORAN and Barcelona native Daniel Orpi join forces for the ‘Gaia’ EP, delivering a pair of deep and rhythmic house slammers. LORAN is well known to listeners of Rinse France, via his monthly radio show, as well as his solo production work and remixes on the Our House label, whilst Daniel Orpi has released on elrow Music, Eats Everything’s Edible label, Kaluki Music and Whippin.

A punchy breakbeat sets up the hypnotizing ‘Gaia’, as shiny melodic keys filter into earshot, and a big and bold sub-bass growls satisfyingly, punctured by micro vocal hits, all set to a groove inducing arrangement. Skream needs little introduction to our readers, it suffices to say that the early dubstep exponent has blossomed into one of the UK’s most dependable producers, via an army of house, disco, and techno-leaning productions and remixes over the last two decades. His remix of ‘Gaia’ is a pure roller, playfully mashing up the synth tones of the original mix into a rave-esque banger of the highest order.

The electro direction of ‘Bloc’ grandly seals off this heavyweight release for Four Thirty Two, as a chugging acidic bassline gurgles intently over a driving rhythm and atmospheric sweeping pads.

You can now listen to the full premiere of Skream’s remix exclusively on When We Dip. Enjoy!
