SPÆCIAL PREMIERE: Pianopoli - Echoes of Tomorrow (Jason Core Remix) [Burning Synths]


When two words say it all: 'The People.' Jaytor & Oceanika distill the essence of emo beach house to its purest form-a mantra-like phrase that hovers between melancholy and euphoria.

'The People' is a sentimental trip through retro-futuristic soundscapes, where minimalist lyrics open up maximum emotional space. In times of forgiveness and connection - especially now, at Christmas - reduction becomes a universal language: We. The people. Together. Break Free.

But don't worry about too much kitsch: the edgy production, combining nostalgic synths and contemporary beat design, ensures that this track never sinks into mainstream mire. Instead, 'The People' remains what it should be: honest, hypnotic, and damn danceable. For everyone. For The People.
