Coming Soon!!! is Dui Biton and Irad Brant, 30 and 27-years-old respectively. As solo artists they produced and DJed what Brant describes as ‘full on psytrance’ but by teaming up as duo and embracing the Coming Soon!!! moniker Biton and Brant got enough distance from their former identities to do something new.
“We have been friends for years so we decided to team up and make one project big,” Brant explains. The friendly auburn haired Israelite pauses before adding the real kicker of becoming Coming Soon!!! “What we did individually you could call ‘full on psytrance’ while Coming Soon!!! is deep prog trance. I think Coming Soon!!! is the product of us growing up!”
The deep prog dance influence manifests strongly in Coming Soon!!!’s sound, one particularly good example of this melding of the traditionally frenetic psytrance and deep prog is the act’s particularly funky 30K Live. Brant talks about one of the remixes that features in this mix and why he likes it.
“The remix from CLASS A to Make It Work has a deep clean sound that just makes people dance, is very groovy and easy to understand.”
It is fair question to ask oneself: what inspired the duo to push the psytrance genre further when they had already established themselves in it? Brant is not afraid to tackle this question and pay tribute to a German label that like Coming Soon!!! is pushing psytrance into to new realms.
“Actually we like all the Spintwist crew, they are like our family and they make amazing music, and like us, outside this genre we have a lot of influences from techno and prog house,” explains Brant.
On the topic of releases and Spintwist Brant explains that Coming Soon!!! have an EP coming out on the German label.
“We have called the EP Action In E Minor that is kinda self-explanatory. This EP is the product of a long time in the studio. We have put lots of time to make it very interesting and diverse some tracks are deep and some are very groovy – you can check some demos on our Soundcloud!”
However, if you can’t wait for the EP then Coming Soon!!! have a mixtape coming out also on Spintwist that features remixes of all their tracks including: Become One (Interactive noise Remix), I Only Smoke (Devinci Code Remix) and Psychedelic (Royal Flush Remix).
While still being educated about what Brant knows that we don’t, he tells Melbourne trance fans ‘who’ are some other exciting DJs/producers from Tel Aviv that we should know about. “There is such a strong trance scene in Tel Aviv it is difficult to pick only one! I would have to say though that Royal Flash/Da Vinci Code are very promising new acts.”
This year for the 20th year of Earthcore Coming Soon!!! have scored the double whammy in headlining the launch party as well as well as getting to play the event itself that is being held from November 29 to December 1 along with Sesto Sento and Perfect Stranger. However, if you are planning on seeing them this weekend Brant establishes that it will be nothing like what you will see at their Earthcore Festival set.
“Festival sets are different from club set as the festival sets tend to break less and there is kick and bass and rhythm most of the time, while the club set break a lot and change rhythms a lot,” he explains.
Finally, to say that Coming Soon!!! are excited about playing Melbourne this Sunday is an understatement with Brant asserting, “We have been getting a lot of love from Australia so now it’s time to give back some love! Get ready for some new music! Thank you and I hope to see you at the party.”
