“Cream” by Claptone

Reminiscent of the super patient, minimal, and downright seductive bootlegs that Soul Clap was pushing out a couple years ago (see Extravaganza, Sex In the Kitchen, and Rock the Boat) this new release from the mysterious duo Claptone entitled "Cream" utilizes the same tension and release tantra-esque production techniques with great success.

Sampling one of the most recognizable piano intros from the 90's hip hop cannon (Wu Tang's "CREAM" if you haven't already figured it out), Claptone twist this nostalgic loop into a deep house dancefloor filler. Released earlier this week on the steadily incredible Exploited Records imprint, this track has been popping up in sets from the likes of the aforementioned Soul Clap to, Toronto's own house maestro, DJ Sneak. Now the video promo for the release is just downright weird…silent films, clowns, ballerinas…. Pick up the full release here. Claptone Soundcloud Claptone Facebook Exploited Records
