Da Mike – East to West EP

Out now, is a new release by Da Mike who’s a Greek artist with links to the Global Fantasy events that are well-known for booking names like Black Coffee, Tale Of Us, DJ Tennis and Guy Gerber. Da Mike can often be found behind the decks at Global Fantasy and this has given him a platform to get the attention of people like Nic Fanciulli and Hyenah who have signed him to their respective record labels Saved Records and Rise Music. ‘East to West’ is the name of Da Mike’s new EP and it’s a melodic release that is filled with the percussive rhythms of an Afro house beat. The title cut has tinkling high-end percussion and stabbing synths that add jackin’ flow to the groove. Augmented with congas and a mystic breakdown, the synth pads fill the track with dramatic suspense. “West of the Moon” is the second track on the release and it’s been constructed using a similar sound palette. It is a bit deeper and has a slower build in its structure, but it also utilises ceremonial vocal chants to create a cinematic vibe. It seems that the release is already proving popular with DJ support by influential names such as Be Svendsen, Super Flu, Sebastien Leger and Nick Warren.
