ISOLATE says, "Blackloud's contribution to the Momentum Series balances rhythmic precision with groove, bringing together two cuts that complement each other without following the same path."

'Don't Make Me' is out now on ISOLATE, a Melodic House and Techno cut released on 24 July this year.

Blackloud's earlier release, 'Disagree With You', came out on Urge To Dance on 12 June, not long before this new one. His wider catalogue runs mostly through Polyptych Bundles, BeatFreak Limited, Balkan Connection and Diynamic, dating back to 2019.

The track itself runs at 127 BPM, as much harmony in it as percussion, the beat sparse throughout, and the whole mix sitting at a steady, in-between volume, well clear of its own limit right through to the end.

The label said

Blackloud's contribution to the Momentum Series balances rhythmic precision with groove, bringing together two cuts that complement each other without following the same path.

"Can't Hold Back" leads the release. Built around chopped vocals, crisp percussion, and a synth that stays firmly at the front of the mix, it keeps the energy locked in without losing its sense of space.

On the B-side, "Don't Make Me" shifts the focus. Anchored by a weighty bassline and an effortless groove, it pairs rolling low-end with a vocal hook that lingers well beyond the final bars.
