From time to time, we shine the spotlight on a SoundGym member by reviewing one of their releases for our Music Spot feature. In celebration of the fact that we are adding his music to our SoundCoins Store, we are going to take an in-depth look at Moscow-based producer M.D.MAZIN’s recent single, ‘Neon Light’.
The track seamlessly blends deep house, bass house, and even techno elements into a dancefloor-friendly cocktail. However, this is not your typical club banger, as it possesses a distinct flavour that sets it apart from other tracks in these genres.
One of the most striking aspects of ‘Neon Light’ is the unique use of whispered male vocals. The vocals are mixed pretty far forward in the mix, giving them a prominence that is unusual in more underground dance styles. They add a layer of intrigue and mystery to the already dark and brooding atmosphere of the track.
Another standout feature is the presence of a clean electric guitar, which is not typically heard in these subgenres. The guitar provides an unexpected and refreshing change of pace, adding to the track's overall texture and elevating it to another level. The combination of vocals and guitar invites an unexpected comparison – giving off an Underworld-esque vibe, and holding a particular similarity to songs such as ‘Skyscraper I Love You’.
The atmosphere of ‘Neon Light’ is undeniably dark and claustrophobic, yet it manages to remain groovy and infectious. The use of heavy bass and punchy drums creates a strong foundation for the track, allowing the other elements to build and evolve over time. It's the perfect balance between dark and light, and it's sure to keep dancefloors moving.
The production quality of ‘Neon Light’ is top-notch, with each sound and effect carefully crafted and placed to create a cohesive and satisfying sonic experience. It's clear that M.D.MAZIN is a skilled producer who knows how to create music that is both complex and accessible.
Overall, ‘Neon Light’ is a great track that showcases M.D.MAZIN's talents as a producer and artist. Its unique blend of genres, unexpected elements, and infectious grooves make it a real standout.
