Above & Beyond and PROFF – Fractals
Genre: Organic House
Ever since legendary trio Above & Beyond hosted the Anjunadeep Edition 500 mix, and announced their Deep Set at Finsbury Park, also for Anjunadeep, we knew something was up. Only we didn’t know it was a double A-sider with one of the most infectiously-sounding producers in the Deep range, longtime friend PROFF.
Out of the two tracks, ‘Palermo’ and ‘Fractals’, we decided to pick the latter for our NMF feature. ‘Fractals‘ is a daring piece of tribal-esque Organic House which plays with out-of-sync, Euclidean rhythms and arpeggios, and an irresistible groove. We can surely hear the influence of all artists involved, and we just can’t get enough of it. Tony would say, “Mmmmmmm“.
Disciples & Delilah – If I Stay
Genre: House, Progressive House
Great news for the Dance world happened this week, as Dance music group Disciples came back. The hit-making trio, coauthors, for example, ‘How Deep Is Your Love’, one of the most summery anthems EDM has offered, released a new anthem just yesterday, ‘If I Stay’, alongside gifted vocalist Delilah.
Disciples’ comeback tune is built from the ground up over machine-programmed closed hats, then slowly unveiling an evolving atmosphere, warm and cosy, while at the same time introducing the offbeat rhythms the band are known for. It’s a harder, yet still highly melodic piece of House bliss, and it nods to their essence while moving in a new direction.
Malóne, CJ Jeff, Ellivia – Missing (Back To You)
Genre: Afro House, Deep House
We’ve been digging the Malóne sound quite a bunch over here. And today we got yet another one of his, with a touch of nostalgia that has us pressing the replay button over and over again. He just joined forces with CJ Jeff and Ellivia to unveil ‘Missing (Back To You)’, a fresh take on the 1994 classic Everything But The Girl singalong ‘Missing’.
Released via Spinnin’ Deep, it’s got the best of all worlds, since it features incredible groove over melodic, warm musical beds, and tops it all off with the sensual voice of Ellivia. The Afro-House leaning tune represents the return of the long-gone singalong legend that is the original ‘Missing’. Now we’re able to enjoy hearing a fresh new version at clubs and festivals and, why not, beaches at sunset.
Wehbba – Revelation
Genre: Techno (Peak-Time)
Wehbba made his highly anticipated return to Drumcode this week with the release of his Awaken EP. It had been eighteen months since his last EP on the label, so the anticipation for the Brazilian producer was through the roof. A two-tracker of sorts, it included the title track, ‘Awaken’, and the B-side, ‘Revelation‘.
‘Revelation’ takes listeners on a journey through trippy Techno landscapes, incorporating Eastern scales and drawing influence from ritualistic ceremonies of Middle Eastern and South Asian cultures. The track is a testament to Wehbba’s ability to blend different musical elements and create a unique sonic experience that is both captivating and hypnotic.
Audien feat. Jeoff Harris – Living in Color
Genre: Progressive House, Dance Pop
Grammy-nominated, gold-certified DJ and producer Audien has unveiled his first single, ‘Living in Color,’ off his forthcoming album, HARMONY. Known for his production prowess and uplifting melodies, he has established himself as an icon in the Dance community, garnering the support of industry veterans such as Tiësto, Above & Beyond, and Zedd, and locking in remixes for leaders such as Bastille and Coldplay.
Known for his signature Progressive House sound, Audien infuses this tune with a touch of Dance Pop, making it an instant radio hit. The song is a celebration of love and its transformative power, capturing the feeling of being completely enamored with someone. Jeoff Harris’ emotive vocals perfectly complement Audien’s melodic production, resulting in a track that is both euphoric and heartfelt.
