After an eventful summer, Montreal-born DJ The Holy announces the release of his highly anticipated second EP, VORTEX.

The EP features two new songs, All About and Roll With, accompanying his previous tracks One Time and Plantera, which have garnered support from some of the biggest names in international electronic music such as David Guetta, Jamie Jones, Meduza, Benny Benassi, amongst many others.

The power and insatiable energy of his signature sound is truly present on his two new compositions. The song All About, which he premiered at Montreal's infamous Piknic Electronik in front of an electrifying crowd last July, features deep, punchy bass ripples, a driving martial cadence and spirited vocals. Roll With showcases a more melancholic tonality with its punctuated and spacious tribal sounding melodies carefully accompanied by his typical driving steady beat.

The Holy doesn't hide his production influences: the underground house and techno scene of the 90's fuelled by its numerous illegal raves as well as the Y2K era with the arrival of superstar DJs such as Darude, The Prodigy, The Chemical Brothers and Benny Benassi have always been a source of inspiration for him. He believes that the purity of visceral emotion shared in electronic music of that era is even more relevant today in the context of a pandemic.

"The many confinements we've gone through have created a sickly isolation among the general population," Holy observes. "My production perspective was based on the idea that as soon as the shows, festivals and collective life as a whole would resume, people would have a thirst to come together in community to experience strong, true and unfiltered emotions."

The bet paid off: The Holy played to a packed house in New York City earlier this summer, electrified the Mural festival last June, and delivered a memorable performance in front of one of the biggest crowds of the summer as a headliner for Piknic Electronik. 

The Holy's goal with Vortex is simple: to draw the audience into a groove where instinct and sublimity take control of their emotions.

And that, he does with brilliance.

'Sincopat proudly welcomes back the Brazilian maestro Renato Cohen who delivers a brilliant new EP for the label. Well known for his great stylistic elegance in the search for the beautiness of the endless loop and perfect shapes.

For this new adventure he is accompanied by another great artist like Theus Mago who adds the cherry on top of this timeless release.We have 'Say Yes' to start, which keeps us in tension all the way through. A modern funk piece of masterful simplicity. 

Theus Mago presents a superb remix that captures the essence of the original but bringing it into his own personal style.

To continue, we have 'Piano Fix', an authentic sonorous voyage between styles with a strong Renato's characteristic flavour. A song with plenty of good vibes and a great piano chords on the main drop that leads us to an exciting drop.

And to close the circle we have 'Darklight', that hypnotizes us with its fusion of rock and funk, an intense rollercoaster of sensations that will not leave you chilled. Enjoy!'

'Desert Hearts Records is more than excited to welcome none other than Audiojack to the family. Their characteristic sound has made them one of the most loved acts in the industry. You find them jet setting around, playing the wildest parties all across the globe, while still finding time to create energetic tunes in the studio and running their own label Gruuv. 

And now they have landed on the Desert Hearts Records planet with two massive dance floor bombs. The title track, “Straight Up” takes the lead with its infections groove, while the teasing synth builds up momentum that leads us right into the electrifying break. It is techy, it is catchy, it makes you want to move. 

When we move into the second track of the EP, “Like What”, we know from the first beat that this is going to be big. The driving groove works along the chopped vocal elements and a bouncy bassline. With the exquisite drum work taking its role in the forefront, playful synths funk up the vibe in the back, giving it a lightheaded tough.This EP shows us exactly what Audiojack are so known and loved for. They know what they want on the dance floor, and they are giving it all.'
