WARM AS THE NIGHT

SEE THE FIRE BURNING WHAT A BEAUTIFUL SIGHT
FORGET ALL YOUR FEARS TONIGHT
YOU'RE MINE
AND YOU'RE 
WARM AS THE NIGHT

OUR LOVE IS SO RIGHT I WON'T PUT UP A FIGHT
WHEN WE CLIMB TO THE TOP OF THE STAIRS
TONIGHT 
IT'S OURS
AND IT'S 
WARM AS THE NIGHT
WARM AS THE NIGHT
        
          OUTSIDE BEGINS TO FLURRY
          BUT WE'RE SAFELY TUCKED AWAY
          BABY THERE'S NO WORRY
          WE'LL HIDE FROM THE GRAY

WARM AS THE NIGHT, SOFT AS THE LIGHT
AT THE TOP OF THE STAIRS TONIGHT
WE'LL SHINE SO BRIGHT AND BE
WARM AS THE NIGHT

WARM AS THE  .   .   .

Feral One Records is truly living up to its namesake in 2023.

Following the release of Creating Space, the epic, 17-track LP from FO boss Longstocking, the label is going even more feral with the 18-track compilation, Seattle Volume 2.

Simply put, with these two releases back-to-back, no one can possibly attempt to deny the value and vitality of Seattle’s dance music community.

The scene is strong. The scene is diverse, and Seattle Volume 2 demonstrates this truth with a connective tissue of serene melodies (and one foghorn tech house banger, but those are still welcome on the dancefloor).

Whether it be a melodic bassline like that found in Leon The Lover’s “Show Up,” the rhythmic melodies of Tony H’s “With The Guys” or the string serenades of Snapdragon’s “What Is Closure Anyway,” these artists are using sound to share their stories, and though each story is different, they all start in the same city.

Longstocking, of course, makes an entry into the compilation, this time with a classic soaring house tune entitled “Skip,” that slowly builds from tight-knit beginnings into a lush and infectious groove. The name of the song is apt given its placement as the second track on compilation—almost immediately communicating that none of the 18 pieces of music to come are skippable.

Breaks are essential to the Feral One catalog, and so there are more than a few offerings of the breakbeat variety including “Luna” by Miss Min.D which finds its sense of melody in the spaces between the drums. Blipping and bopping around different pieces of sound design like a spaceship flying through a musical asteroid field.

But Feral One, and the city of Seattle, are, at their core, unbound by genres and other such restrictions. That sense of freedom comes into form on “Call It By Name” by Hanssen. Whatever “rules” anyone attached to electronic music up until now do not matter. The unchained rhythms and drum patterns defy any sense of cohesion, and yet it’s that defiance that solidifies the track.

In truth, that defiance is what solidifies the entire compilation and the scene to which it is dedicated.

All the nice things and the diamond rings.

In my king size bed.

I'll sleep when I'm dead and gone.

They been hating cuz I'm on.

Gotchyo girlfriend in my bedroom.

She just gave me it all.

Mother Of The Worlds

Last Luna

"Never - (Extended Version)" is an energetic musical journey adding :41 seconds more to the Radio Edit version that seamlessly blends the infectious allure of pop with the gritty textures of rock, highlighted by the electrifying presence of an electric guitar delivering a mesmerizing solo riff by the talented Roberto Guzman. 
Introducing a dynamic twist, a turntable is deftly woven into the composition, adding scratching elements that infuse the track with a surge of energy in its midpoint. 
Reminiscent of the essence of Linkin Park, yet infused with the distinctive power of a female vocalist, the song begins with a piano prelude that progressively builds an unwavering sense of momentum. The convergence of genres and instrumental virtuosity makes "Never" a creation that resonates deeply, promising an unforgettable listening experience.
