House Review: Rezident - Only For A Moment out on Anjunadeep


Anjunadeep warmly welcomes David Roif, aka Rezident, back to the label with his new single ‘Only For A Moment’, featuring Norwegian vocalist Ekko. ‘Only For A Moment’ is the first of a three-track EP to be released by the Berlin-based producer this March. The track combines Ekko’s playful vocals with lilting arpeggios and lively drums to create an anthemic, feel-good dance track.

Since debuting on Anjunadeep in 2020 as part of the label’s ‘Explorations 13’ compilation EP with his track ‘Pure’, Rezident has gone from strength to strength in his relatively young but quickly evolving career, including co-producing on a track on Maceo Plex’s recent album with Diplo, and remixing the likes of Aluna, Ben Böhmer, and Jan Blomqvist. Rezident’s remix of Ben Böhmer’s ‘Erase’ was played over 900 times on SiriusXM Chill in 2023, as well as being supported by BBC Radio 1.

David also supported Ben Böhmer on his ‘Begin Again’ world tour, in 2022-3 as well as being a regular feature at Anjunadeep shows at iconic venues including Fabric and The Brooklyn Mirage, and more recently playing at Piknic Électronik Montreal, as well as at The Brooklyn Hangar with Nora En Pure and Enamour.

‘Only For A Moment’ is out February 16 via Anjunadeep.

[item value="10"]Rezident - Only For A Moment[/item]
[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Rezident stands out with his incredible track Only For A Moment featuring the stunning vocals by Ekke. Tribalish chunky grooves, pulsating techy basslines, guitar riffs and superb euphoric vocals along with magical atmosphere full of nice airy pads, warm strings and melancholic touches that make you simply to let yourself sail away in a boat in a far way ocean just you and this incredible track playing again and again. It has that eclectric electronic deep house feel that glows and transcends space and time turning this track into another therapeutic piece that for some moments can turn off the negative world and turn on our imagination that can always run wild and free. #PureGold Love IT[/content]
