Dancing On Wax presents “Travelling In Dreams,” a mesmerising 4-track EP crafted by the talented lo-fi house producer DJ SHAMAN. Evoking the tranquility of the 1990s, the EP seamlessly weaves elements of lo-fi house, ambient house, and dream house into a chilled and relaxing soundscape. DJ SHAMAN's raw yet soothing sound will transport you through a dreamlike journey, featuring beautiful melodies, ethereal pad sounds, and deep, lush basslines that collectively create a nostalgic and stunning sonic experience. A classic in the making, and one to add to your lo-fi house collection.

Side A features two classic ‘good-vibe’ lo-fi house tracks, reminiscent of 2016/2017 lo-fi house. “Lost For Words” is bathed in radiant melodies and buoyant rhythms and serves as an ideal companion for daytime listening. Its vibrant and spirited essence also makes it a perfect choice for early moments in the club. “Landing In Cape Town” emerges as a timeless classic within the lo-fi house genre, resonating with raw emotion that will captivate you. It’s a compelling mood-setter, that will get things going as the sunsets.

Side B delves into a deeper, more introspective realm that invite contemplation and reflection. “Mirages In Gobi” takes centre stage as the pinnacle track of the EP. It commands attention with its powerful and progressive melody, coupled with a bold and resonant bassline that hits hard. It stands as a euphoric uplifter that is bound to resonate well within the pulsating energy of the club. “Interstellar Whales” closes the EP with finesse and emerges as the most distinctive track, introducing a unique feel and melody that sets it apart. Cooling down the sonic journey, this track leaves a lingering desire for more.

"Travelling in Dreams was put together throughout 2023, encompassing portrayals from the waking and dream states. Lo-fi elements mixed with house and techno rhythms resonate throughout the EP. Let the songs take you through a journey of dream like states, who knows if you are sleeping or awake?" - DJ SHAMAN
