“Supergabber” by TORIENA

DV:

With trance resurgent and an EDM revival simmering, it seems inevitable that I’ll hear the new age x house bangers (I’m calling this ”Adiemus”-core) I really want. In the meantime, TORIENA has done better than I ever dreamed, taking some massed choirs and slamming a fucked up gabber beat into them like a mad scientist. “Supergabber” is chaos incarnate, a track that feels unpredictable and dangerous no matter how often you’ve heard it. It shouldn’t work, or rather seems like it shouldn’t work, but TORIENA melds these disparate parts into one of the year’s most propulsive and intense experiences. It’s structured vaguely like a pop song, while lacking the other key conventions of pop music (e.g. vocals, predictability.) It’s built from dance music tropes, while lacking key conventions of dance music (e.g. the ability to move to a beat without injuring yourself.) At one point there’s a sample that says “We do not seek to understand right from wrong anymore” and on one hand, who is we? But on the other it’s correct, ironically so: “Supergabber” is beyond right and wrong, beyond good and evil. TORIENA is making music for a far-flung future. When aliens need to kick back after conquering the planet, maybe they’ll be able to find sense in it. For now it just sounds intensely sensational.

MG:

On the other hand, I love “Supergabber” because it sounds like a fucked up jock jam, like TORIENA took the holy choir from Madonna’s “Like A Prayer” and the synths from 2 Unlimited’s “Get Ready For This” and blended them. But not strictly in the sense of combination -- more importantly, they’re now at the speed of the blender. A siren, of course, appears early on to warn us all of assault, emergency, and to gently suggest that things will only get more intense after their already surreal beginnings. Importantly, “Supergabber” never goes anywhere. As propulsive and unleashed as it is, the song simply ricochets around in a cylinder. Maybe it’s a mosh pit, maybe it’s a rabid dog chasing its tail, but it’s never representative or indicative of progress. This is a song for being totally stuck and absorbing a brutal beating, a song that demands you take it, that extracts your submission. It’s beautiful, I cower with pleasure.
