Girls to the Front
Taking their trademark bouncy and playful strain of house music to Stil vor Talent with Girls to the Front, HOVR gets the ball rolling with cheeky bravura. As its title suggests, this is HOVRs dance floor-ready attempt at shedding a broader light on the subject of androcentrism, i.e. the fact of placing the masculine point of view at the center of society, including club music, thereby culturally marginalizing feminity. A call for women to take the front stage, Girls to the Front - with its fun-loving approach to a perfectly serious actual socio-political issue, beckons us towards communion rather than division, encouraging men to realise how their inherent position forces women out of the picture. Driven by an infectious hi-NRG jack, processed synth stabs and 303-fueled bass squelch, HOVRs single combines laser-guided ghetto tech attributes with true-school Detroit house tropes to deadly effect. In the hands of Biesmans, the track hatches into a further roller-coaster-like ride - flush with obsessive arpeggios, hard-hitting claps and a further muscular buildup, whilst getting the message across with even greater loads of anthemic vibrations and boundary-pushing apropos. Calling all girls to the front.
