Jack Jakhira is back with another round of progressive goodness with his three tracker, "Heartstrings EP". Born in the UK and now residing in Belgium Jack is fresh off the back of his last BP outing "Truly EP". The title track "Heartstrings" kicks us off into an epic ride through progressive grooves. The track intros with a strong kick and a mixture of crispy hats, as the track progresses cool funky house chords begin to show with a super smooth bass bringing up the rear. On the break things take a twist as the sound transforms into a maelstrom of melodies which adds a very rich contrast to how the track began. Quite innovative stuff here and a must for any DJ box. "What Could Have Been" is up next and be prepared for another epic journey. Smooth kick-hat intro, classic style. A funky bassline coupled with stunning synth work lead us up to the break where a rich pad takes over, filled with warm sweet melodies and a distant sounding saxophone. The talents from this artist continue to impress, this track is so complex yet it is something that you will relate to very quickly, superb stuff. "Other People" rounds up this quality EP in style. A deep and soulful vibe is garnered from the groovy bassline and the multitude of instruments on offer. The arrangement here is expertly crafted as patterns are evolved, again we see very complex structures which are easily identifiable due to the wonderful craftsmanship. A must have on any playlist for sure.

Kindred Spirits - Square 1 EP [Green Martian] @ Beatport

quote:

This duo really know their stuff, the title track intros with some fantastic hypnotic tribal rhythms which build into a sublime slice of euphoric progressive house. The melodies combine beautifully and the subtle basses add a lush texture. On the break warm pads fade through while melodies creep back into play. The percussion and drum arrangements are top notch and make this track stand out well, superb stuff! "The Circuit" gives off a retro vibe as the kicks and percussions will attest. The track focuses on the drums as they lock you in the groove, then on the break stunning melodic pads make a show alongside a wonderful droning synth and stark contrasts are drawn. A real sense of oldskool hardcore can be felt within the sound yet the vibe stays true to modern progressive house, great stuff.

Jakhira - Princess EP [Bonzai Progressive] @ Beatport

quote:

The very talented Belgium based producer Jakhira is back once again with another fine slice of progressive on his three track "Princess EP". Jacks recent outings have gained highly respected reviews from across the world with features among download portals becoming quite regular. This is a testament to the quality on offer from this guy with much more to come for sure. "Princess" kicks us off with a lush progressive vibe constructed out of warm and melodic sounds. The intro has the classic kick, hat and percussion element, a cool synth sound fades through before leading up to a superbly deep bassline with some acid tweaks thrown in. Subtle melodies find their way through as the track winds down into the break before coming back to full on prog house mode, great stuff. "Lingala" provides cool progressive beats with a wonderful guitar overlay that adds a little melody to the sound. Nice, solid rhythms with the drum section and a subtle yet highly effective bassline tie the track up beautifully. As the track eases on we see some classy sounds come in with melodies becoming more prominent, on the break these sounds blend together superbly creating a fine slice of prog which is not to be missed. "UR Love" gets moving with some tight drum arrangements with classic deep house vibes running through. The bassline powers into the track and sets the scene for a fantastic house journey. Wonderful vocal samples lift the track up beautifully alongside superb synth work. Brilliant track with a retro feel and one that will please a lot of jocks.

Drukke weken op vlak van releases, deze is voorlopig de laatste

Ben benieuwd naar de promo feedback van dit EP, ben er erg trots op en krijg steeds betere reacties van mensen als Lemon8 en Marko!

quote:

These tracks hang somewhere in between House and Progressive House...not that, that is a bad thing. They use a lot of the musical ideology that defined house music in Chicago 25 years ago, but have that progressive undertone. Good music development both layered and sectional. Good stuff.
