For our seventeenth release on Seventh Sign Recordings, we welcome some electronic beauty from Japanese sensation Itokim, who presents his “Follow the Light EP.”

We begin with “Moonlight”, with its shivery atmosphere and spellbinding melodies. Burning slowly with confident ease, this track builds in a very satisfying way, teasing and drawing you in before dropping into the grooviest of hooks, taking what is in your head onto the dance floor. Wonderful track.

“Sunlight” comes in next. Changing the mood, this brilliant track blends nice Detroitish moods with a rolling bassline, dramatic stabs and some neat drops and lifts. This offers a dance floor-friendly flourish that retains the unique character of the Itokim sound.

Solab offer up a remix of “Sunlight” as the last track in the group. Delivering something else altogether, Ross and Graham have twisted the track into something that retains the melody and the musicality of the original but injects some extra power into the rhythm track and adds some character all of their own. This version likes to crunch from section to section, building drama as it rolls along.
