Deeper melodic progressive inspired by, and written during, my recent trip to Iceland

Solis [US] - Impulse (original mix)

I first became involved with electronic music in the early 2000s. Gravitating towards jungle and drum and bass, my first forays into production were made alongside my brother Rohan. Releasing and touring under the “Vice Versa” moniker and thanks to the support from local Sydney DJs, we managed to catch the attention of legendary drum and bass figure LTJ Bukem, enjoying a string of high profile releases on his seminal label ‘Good Looking Records’. Residencies at most of Sydney's major clubs and playing support for touring D&B luminaries such as Goldie, Calibre, DJ Hype, LTJ Bukem and Total Science followed...

After a hiatus, in 2022 I rediscovered my love for writing music and largely thanks to a series of mixes released by my close friend DJ Lucian, I found a new muse and appreciation for the moods and grooves of house music. Newly-inspired, I sparked up the 'Miraj' project. My first releases surfaced in 2023 on labels such as Valiant, Celestial and EmbarrassedArts and there's plenty more to come in 2024 and beyond.

Thanks for checking out my page and I hope you enjoy the sounds!

David Hammond, known by his stage name Solis [US], is a Madison, Wisconsin-based producer specializing in deep progressive house. His sound often carries an uplifting melodic quality, shaped by his early musical journey as a bassist at age 15, later transitioning into jazz and lead guitar. 

Solis [US] aims to offer listeners a more sophisticated and emotionally nuanced experience, moving beyond the beat-focused or typical dark, minor-key moods common in dance music. His goal is to create tracks that are just as enjoyable in personal moments—whether driving or socializing—as they are on the dancefloor.

In particular, David strives for a slightly melancholic yet thoughtful vibe that ultimately leaves listeners feeling uplifted. Supported by Hernan Cattaneo, Guy J, Paul Van Dyk, Nick Warren, Guy Mantzur, Gai Barone, DJ Ruby, K Loveski, Proff, Dmitry Molosh, Hobin Rude, Jaytech, Luciano Scheffer, Michael A, Subandrio, Callecat, Weird Sounding Dude, Dowden, NOIYSE PROJECT, Nicolas Viana, and others.
