‘Tord’ is a suave, addictive and seriously progressive workout that tickles the ears and pulls you into the fluctuating layers and will leave you wanting more, which is a skill in itself, but the most impressive part of the production is that the want for more is delivered with every new synth and melody that streams in through the track’s length. The production starts stripped-back, but by the third quarter it’s a barrage of lush synths, tight melodies and uplifting FX and risers that are euphoric without ever being overstated or brash. No two sections are the same, the progressive nature of the track makes the production grow exponentially – which is impressive as the single is by no means a radio edit at nearly eight minutes long. It’s a nod to classic Progressive House, but merged with elements of modern deeper club styles and Tom’s signature synths – ‘Tord’ is an entirely unique single.
