PREMIERE: Chris Cargo - Aurora (Original Mix) [IF YOU WAIT]

'An artist with a long and esteemed career within the underground dance industry, Chris Cargo is one of electronic music’s great innovators. Always at the bleeding edge of the progressive and deep house scene, he returns to his If You Wait imprint with a full-length album of ground-breaking breadth and diversity that showcases true “Resistance”.

A seasoned DJ and producer from Belfast, Cargo has seen his music reach far beyond the boundaries of his Northern Ireland home that have seen him enrapture crowds across all corners of the globe since the 1990s. From Shanghai and Siberia to Malaysia and Mexico for the likes of Smirnoff, Renaissance and Tennent’s Lager, Cargo has thrilled with a series of meticulously crafted and spellbinding sets. A celebrated production career has run contemporaneously with Cargo seeing his music signed to a plethora of blue-chip imprints that include John 00 Fleming’s JOOF, Paul Thomas’ UV and Nick Warren’s The Soundgarden, as well as the likes of Mango Alley, Stellar Fountain and Flow Vinyl. Supported by DJs across the world, particular attention has been paid by the dance industry’s glitterati that features John Digweed, Hernan Cattaneo and Laurent Garnier, to name but an elite few.

Using his own imprint as a vehicle for his music and a wealth of other high-profile artists, Chris Cargo now debuts his “Resistance” album on If You Wait. The multi-layered sonic landscape of “Constellations” opens proceedings with its subtle vocal phrasing, suspenseful chord progressions and twinkling motif. “From Within” continues the textured patterns before a rolling breakbeat groove adds a heavyweight anchor. Building to a rousing crescendo, stereo-panned pads open up in the second half. The deep house vibe of “Kundalini” impresses with its powerful bassline and delicate percussive roll adding weight aplenty, before the light, house vibe of “Cried to Dream” impresses with reverb-laden piano chords and subtly incongruous pad backdrop.

A delicate percussive vibe returns courtesy of “Corrado” as it rolls hypnotically across its 8-minute timeframe accompanied by a glorious jazz piano sequence and delay-infused effects, while “Home”, featuring the loquacious vocal harmonies of Sarah Whittaker Gilbey, is a delight to behold with its tender phrasing and air of melancholy. “Synergy” jars the listener back to the here and now with a deep bassline groove and ticking hi hat rhythm before “Aurora” smacks of club-friendly rhythms and powerful melodies. Straight out of the modern progressive house handbook, elegantly crafted melodies filter into range as muted arpeggios dance in tandem.

“Circadian” continues the driving club atmosphere that has come to define the Chris Cargo sound with its chest-thumping kick and powerful bass notes, while ethereal melodies easily drift across the mid-range to create a spine-tingling moment of magic. A stripped back breakbeat pattern heralds “Some Kind of Electric” as a sustained arpeggio and syncopated melody play off each other. Counterpoint melody is provided courtesy of sumptuous pads as an 80s bass pattern supplies a nostalgic feel. Ending as it began, the smooth textures of “Space Between” provide a pause for reflection as emotive chords soar into the distance with gravitas and strength, creating the perfect end to an outstanding body of work.'
