Review: Featuring Electricano, YokoO & Zone+, Hermanez, and Moya, this dynamic SATYA VA embarks on a journey into the early morning vibes, Portuguese style. Inspired by a dance floor's most pulsating and sustained moments, Satya orchestrates a collection of meticulously crafted tracks, encapsulating feelings of minimal euphoria and sonic exploration. Delivering a dynamic listening experience across four tracks, Electricano holds down a liquid bassline and lucid groove in "Universal Language", while YokoO & Zone+ go in techy and ethereal via their track "Once I Had It". Hermanez sends in some classic and heavy dub house for the ages, with your uplifting closing number, choir and all, coming from Moya. Your sunrise has arrived.
Review: Fresh from contributing to multi-artist extravaganzas on Peace Symphonies and Shanti Radio Moscow, Hermanez delivers his first full EP for All Day I Dream. He begins in typically atmospheric, immersive style with 'Alavanca', where melancholic strings, gaseous chords and woozy melodies tumble down across a locked-in tech-house groove, before opting for a slightly warmer sound on 'Tale of the Unexpected', which sounds like a house head's take on Thomas Nuemann's much-loved score for Oscar-winning movie American Beauty. 'Areia' is a bright, breezy and sun-splashed chunk of melody-rich deep house positivity, while 'Wutaf' peppers a drowsy, dreamy backing track with intricate electronic sound-splashes, snappy drums and swirling strings.
Review: After an 18-month period in which he solely contributed tracks to compilations and muti-artist EPs, rising star Hermanez has finally been given the chance to release another solo single. He begins his first Souksonic outing in typically melodious and sun-soaked form, layering blissful, harp style melodies and swelling synthesizer chords atop a chunky, loose-limbed groove on 'Cadell', before adding dreamy vocal snippets, fretless bass and Kalimba style melodies to an extra-percussive tech-house groove on 'Sweet Karma'. 'Heavens of Seven' is a tactile and huggable affair rich in shuffling drums, Spanish guitar motifs and enveloping ambient chords, while closing cut 'Drive Thru India' sees Hermanez sandwich a hazy, Sitar-heavy breakdown between two slabs of chunky tech-house beats.
Review: Belgium's Hermanez is back on Lapsus (out of Florence Italy) with some warm and emotive tech house that packs a punch at the same time. The funky and hypnotic "Most Likely" rolls along nicely supported by tribal drums and a killer drop towards the end! "Pocket Groove" gets even tougher on you with its dark and trippy sound design drowned in the right amount of reverb on this finely tuned groove. Finally "9 O'clock" features Davy Dee on this deep and atmospheric tribal house cut with booming toms and throbbing bass which is perfect to get things weird at the afterhours.
