French DJ, producer and live act Romain Garcia returns to Anjunadeep with a new four-track EP, entitled ‘Everybody Dreams’.
Romain was welcomed to the Anjunadeep family last year with his well-received EP ‘Before You Go EP’. His label debut received support from Sian Eleri on her BBC Radio 1 Chillest show and the EP’s title track was the most-played on SiriusXM Chill across the month of February.
On ‘Everybody Dreams’, Romain’s uniquely joyful take on progressive house is on full display, and the additional elements of strong arpeggiated synths, and moving vocal samples combine to make this a standout release for the young French talent.
After appearing at Anjunadeep’s label showcase at Printworks in December 2022, Romain is set for a busy year of touring, kicking off with a string of European shows, including supporting Anjunadeep label favourite Marsh in Paris, before Romain makes his American debut in the second half of the year.

[item value="10"] Romain Garcia - Everybody Dreams EP[/item]
[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Romain Garcia returns on Anjunadeep for an exquisite EP of the highest caliber. Everybody Dreams starts the proceedings in the most cheerful way with spoken vocal samples of children who talk about their dreams and aspirations. Uplifting synths make the perfect intro and then the track goes for a full on melodic dreamy progressive house direction with stomping dominating grooves and feel good synths definitely this is the anthem of the end of dark period of the pandemic leading to the new optimistic direction. Night Memory is driving, emotional and highly infectious with big euphoric climax for the large festivals for sure. Lophorina moves and grooves with deep moody pulsating basslines and warm piano chords and nice sensual synths for that very special drive into the unknown. Soon the big uplifting layers are added for the stunning blissful final hands in the air part. Finally Pave Your Way adopts the twisted wonky bass and kick for that mau5trap style foundation. The breakdown is joyful and the distorted strange synthy wave that runs the track all the way to the climax can raise the hair in your back and does the trick for that esoteric hypnotic effect. #PureGold Love iT [/content]
