KaNa-Episode 10 [Snow Freques]

 


The whole beauty of the dance music world is the utter realization that new artists emerge out of the woodwork and arise, blooming like the rarest flowers, bringing their own vibrancy, color and scent to the world, thus enriching the already fruitful array of endless music alongside the established favorite artists of yesteryear. One of these artists hails from the land of the rising sun, a true artist who is passionate for her work, creating truly beautiful tracks while baring her soul unto the world! "KaNa" has illuminated our world with her vast array of releases always bringing something new and special to the scene. Her new E.P dubbed "Episode 10" is released on her home label "Snow Freques" and consists of four tracks each with their own significance and importance. Let's have a look within shall we?

"Play Of Colour" has that beloved melodic house essence to it that was championed around 2006 by the likes of "Tiesto" on albums such as the iconic "In Search Of Sunrise: Los Angeles". Melodic bliss, light percussion and a relaxed, feel good vibe unfolds complete with ethereal melodic droplets and lush piano medleys that can be found tucked away in the break of the tune. All this carries us away into a sea of serenity and infinite harmony.

"Play Of Colour (Meloless Mix)" is an alternative take on the previous tune as you may easily discover. This one stays relatively true to the original's tendencies while slightly altering a few of the elements, giving it a more organic dance music approach.

"Cosmoclock 21 (Kyohei Akagawa Remix)" is a track that was already included on the previous release by "KaNa" which was was well received by the public. No surprise that artists would be interested in giving their take on the beloved track. First in line is "Kyohei Akagawa". His version of the track slows things down a tad while focusing on the lush melodies and tranquil state while mixing it up with a kind of a breakbeatish attitude. Lush and fierce patterns of sound clash as if competing against each other. The easily recognizable chopped vox from the original are here as well adding a bit of mischief to the tune itself. An original approach by Kyohei.

"Adularescence" is the final track of the package. Percussion plays a big role here shaking things up while the rhythmical bassline sets the tone. Glass-like melodies flutter in and out alongside passionate sun drenched melodies and classical strings which add the appropriate dosage of drama to the mix. Audio fragments of nature add a peaceful essence to the tune giving it a definite blissful state. Fond memories of a joyous time in nature are surely evident here. Harmonious, beautiful, serene!

Something for everyone here, "KaNa" has certainly been inspired!
