Powel

When We Dip XYZ

Ring the alarm - Powel is back! The All Day I Dream and Anjunadeep regular has crafted a space of his own, utilizing an amazing breadth of production class and eclectic influence. His heady grooves remain immensely dance friendly, as the melodies and percussion connect in stunning and unpredictable fashion. He's already thoroughly beloved by XYZ aficionados, following his incredible reworks of Hosini and Esteble, and we're thrilled to have him back for his first full length EP - The Naked Astronaut.

M13 opens the show with a crisp house cut, balancing that timeless old-school feel with modern melodics. Vocal cuts remain in the distance, as the wistful vibe carries us from start to finish. Meandering soundscapes keep the mind moving, while the lush groove takes care of the feet.

The project's namesake - The Naked Astronaut - picks up the pace while continuing the foundation of slick sounds centered around house. Stabby synths elevate energy from the get-go, as elongated strings maintain a touch of class throughout this dancefloor-oriented selection.

Peacocks and Sheep harnesses a bit of breaks and a bodacious underbelly fit for a king. Ominous tones float in and out, while keeping soulful sounds at the fore of this tune for the heads. As emotive as you need, a malleable production ready for consumption.

Closing things out is All The Love, the perfect summary to this house-laden masterclass from Powel. A punchy bassline and warm synthetics soar into the night, maintaining the groovy bliss that we've enjoyed since the A-side. As good a four-some as you'll ever hear - Powel delivers yet again.
