Here Comes The Noise by Prok & Fitch: A Tech House Banger That Still Slaps
Alright, let’s talk about Here Comes The Noise, the 2013 release from Dutch duo Prok & Fitch. If you’re into electronic music with a tech house twist, this one's got your name all over it. Released under Stealth Records, this album feels like that friend who shows up uninvited but ends up being the life of the party.
First off, let’s break down the vibe. The whole thing screams “Netherlands nightlife,” like neon lights flickering on wet cobblestone streets at 3 AM. It’s raw, punchy, and doesn’t try too hard to impress—it just does. You can tell these guys weren’t aiming for perfection; they were chasing energy. And damn, did they catch it.
Now, onto the tracks. The title track, "Here Comes The Noise," is basically the heartbeat of the record. From the first beat, it grabs you by the collar and says, “Hey, listen up!” There’s something hypnotic about how the bassline grooves along while those crisp hi-hats keep things moving forward. It’s not overly complicated—just straight-up dancefloor gold. I remember hearing this in a club once, and suddenly everyone was jumping around like caffeinated kangaroos. Can’t explain why, but that drop? Pure magic.
Then there’s another version of "Here Comes The Noise" (yeah, same name, different flavor). This remix takes the original and flips it into something darker, grittier. Think late-night warehouse vibes instead of shiny clubs. It’s almost like listening to two sides of the same coin—one’s playful, the other brooding. Both hit differently, depending on your mood. Honestly, it’s kinda genius how they pulled that off without making it feel repetitive.
What sticks with me most about this album isn’t just the tunes themselves—it’s the attitude. Prok & Fitch didn’t reinvent the wheel here, but they sure as hell gave it some new rims. They remind us that sometimes, less really is more. No frills, no gimmicks—just solid beats designed to make people move.
So yeah, if you’re looking for an album that’ll light up your speakers and maybe even your soul, Here Comes The Noise has got your back. Just don’t blame me when you find yourself dancing alone in your kitchen at midnight.
Oh, and fun fact? Listening to this makes me want to learn Dutch. Not sure why. Maybe because anything sounds cooler in Dutch? Geile plaat, man!
