ReDrive & Malc B - Tekta (out now from all good download stores)

Cory Goldsmith posits that dance music is seldom as simple as it seems. He studies the emotional gray area where melody and rhythm intersect with tempo and timbre through the analytical lens of a scientist. Far be it from him to express his findings in absolute terms.



A senior software developer for iZotope with a doctorate in chemical physics, Cory has released on techno labels like IAMT and Reload Records as well as trance imprints like Magic Island Records. His own sound signature sits in a category of its own, though. Cerebral and refined yet purpose-built for the dancefloor, it’s a body of work more than a decade in the making.

Cory Goldsmith’s tenure as a musician extends back even further. Born in Atlanta, Georgia, he once led a musical double life, playing guitar and bass in metal bands while inexorably drawn to trance classics like Ian Van Dahl’s “Castles in the Sky.” After relocating to Colorado to work towards his PhD at CU Boulder, he began to pursue electronic music more actively.

Cory cut his teeth as a DJ at venues like The Fox Theatre in Boulder and Cervantes’ Other Side in Denver while dabbling in music production. In 2016, he landed an Ableton internship that elevated his skill set in the studio. His debut release, the Streetlight EP, arrived by way of U.K. label Isolator the same year.

Cory Goldsmith once again found himself living a double life. He became a familiar face behind the decks at Denver gatherings like Global Dance Festival and Decadence while putting out music on labels like Alter Ego Records, Tangled Audio, and Blue Monkey Records. Parallel to music, he participated in academic research to defend his chemical physics thesis.

When at long last he obtained his doctorate degree in late 2018, Cory also turned a corner in his music career. It was shortly afterward that he began working at iZotope, where still he helps develop plugins for producers today. This predictably leveled up his own skills in the studio. In early 2020, he collaborated with fellow Denver artist Adam Stark on “Aurum,” the Magic Island Records debut that earned him his first play from Dutch trance stalwart Ferry Corsten.

Then came the COVID crisis, which gave Cory Goldsmith ample time to focus on recording music. In 2021 he landed on Reload Records with Slave To My Mind, a techno two-tracker defined by tough rhythms and introspective melodies. The following year, he delivered two more EPs in the same vein. Wanderrust found a home on Made In Brussels, and What Am I Scheming came out via IAMT.

In the meantime, Cory and Adam continued to work closely together. Their 2021 collaboration “Cesca” released on Magic Island Deep, garnering support from globetrotting DJs like Cosmic Gate and Aly & Fila. 

Cory’s music is instantly recognizable no matter where a given piece may sit on the electronic music spectrum. Each release explores the interplay between emotive chord progressions and visceral textures, yielding a tension and release dynamic put to the test in his high-energy DJ sets. Cory’s refusal to see music in black-and-white terms is serving him well now that he’s come into his own as an artist.



Don’t sleep on the doctor. From where Cory Goldsmith sits at the forefront of dance music, the future looks bright as ever.
