Karim Shaker shifts gears to destination high time, taking us on a deep, proggy ride with his ‘Halfway Between Heaven And Earth’ E.P..
Blending the spicy flavours of tech-house with the shady side of endlessly deep progressive, is what’s been keeping Spanish producer and DJ Karim Shaker busy these days. The clubbing society embraced his solo-sounds, with ‘Ambassador’ and ‘A Leap Of Faith’ running their course to the hottest clubs and underground hotspots. His new one, ‘Halfway Between Heaven And Earth’, is bound to the same destination. A somewhat eerie, entangled piece of melodic prog takes over, with depth as its biggest drive. ‘Halfway Between Heaven And Earth’ sounds exactly like its title, only better.
Spanish producer Dosem, known for deep-house classic ‘Beach Kisses’ and legendary remixes for the likes of Henry Saiz, Jeff Mills and Technasia, did a brilliant take on ‘Halfway Between Heaven And Earth’. Giving it an energetic tech-house vibe, makes his remix a real crowd-pleaser.
Dimitri Kechagias review: The high quality progressive house label Electronic Elements reveals another superb quality release. This time the superb Karim Shaker brings a huge epic progressive house anthem that its title sums up well its content. If you search for a 10 minutes sonic odyssey of intergalactic sounds and spacey effects that will travel you to discover what is hidden Halfway Between Heaven and Earth then you can be rest assured that you found what you were searching for. Personally on a progressive house track I'm always looking for that special cinematic atmosphere that will hypnotise the crowd on the dancefloor and with closed eyes will dance along its superb deep basslines and complex sound textures. Karim Shaker's music creation stands out because it tells a story through the excellent composition of the various elements that will take the listener for a sci-fi journey. Get on board on your spacecraft and let the deep pulsating beats, the electro influenced basslines, the added mysterious melodies, and the sci-fi movie like sound effects to guide you through the universe of quality EDM. Its important to note down that the track is so good that you don't even notice that lasts for 10 minutes. On remix duties Dosem spice up the proceeding with a tech house meets prog house approach that is faster, more bouncy and absolutely essential for the more upfront moment in your dj performance. With thicker and rougher beats but with the same cinematic atmosphere its for sure a track that deserves your attention. Like IT!
