Our resident starving artist, Ucleden makes a triumphant return with two stylish originals and remix support from Lexicon Avenue and Benwaa. 

It’s been a little while since we’ve had original music from Ucleden, but we’ve featured him often. Not surprising really, he’s been pushing his silky smooth vibes across some great labels such as Ricky Ryan’s Electronic Groove, and Mike Koglin and Mood Freak’s YOMO records to name a few. 

Opening with ‘Oxygen’ it’s all systems go. Bass heavy and driving, the low end fury powers this one for those pre-peak moments to get the floor focused. Earworm arps hypnotise at will. ‘The Sea Was Empty’ digs deeper. Classically structured and warmly familiar, this is progressive house from an artist at the peak of his talents. 

On remix duties, prog legend Lexicon Avenue reimagines ‘Oxygen’ with delicate pads and a meaty reese bass midsection. Stripped back for maximum carnage, this is one for the big occasions. Inspired by ‘The Sea Was Empty’ Benwaa has turned in two different remixes. Aesthetic 1 vibes along paying homage to the original's energy and groove with a more electronic edge.
