Shadows of the Night

MYR Records label head Goeran Meyer returns with more emotive sounds on the new EP “Shadows of the Night”, featuring a remix from Mario Navajo.

Versatile live act, DJ and producer Meyer is on a hot streak right now and continues to serve up profound electronic cuts that draw on his skills as a sound designer. Known for his ability to finely sculpt audio and lay down melodies with real meaning, he explores a new sound here with predictably great results.

First up is a superb vocal edit of “Shadows of the Night”, which begins slowly and mysteriously with a percussive intro and finely tuned drum settings. After some breathtaking breaks and stirring African vocals, the track gradually builds up through rich synth arps and driving kicks that are rich in mood and sure to lock in the dance floor.

After the instrumental strips away the vocal, the collaborative “Gimme That Love” edit with Mario Navajo is another deeply absorbing and widescreen trip, with deep bass and a dark, moody vocal from Mario that recalls Depeche Mode. It's an involving journey that makes a striking emotional impact — a refreshing change of pace, and one that is perfect for the summer months.
