Saying that DJ/producer Cédric “Canblaster” Steffens is on a roll is an understatement. This year alone, he’s already dropped an Internet famous EP with Lido and a pair of real-life, crossover famous singles with his Club Cheval supergroup, along with a string of excellent one-off remixes. And he’s just getting started. The fittingly titled, “Encore DX” is our first taste of his forthcoming solo EP, and it’s an example of his impressive song-craft and composition. He expertly matches undulating keys with light vocals that builds to a tasty climax. Like much of his best work, it i meticulously crafted without being overly brainy, never forgetting that dance music’s core purpose is to, you know….make people dance.
