Dutch DJ and producer Nordfold brings us the Pathways EP.
First arriving on Anjunadeep in April 2020 with double A-side ‘Venus / Trondheim’, Nordfold has been a consistent label staple this decade with four other solo releases and numerous compilation appearances to his name. His music has earned him spots on Anjunadeep compilations 11, 12, 13 and 15 with EP title track ‘Pathways’ selected by James Grant and Jody Wisternoff for this year’s edition.
This year, Nordfold remixed Simon Roth’s ‘Ultraviolet’, appearing on the second volume of new compilation series ‘Movement’ accompanied by a livestream filmed along the beautiful coastline of Cape Town. In November he joins Anjunadeep for the London stop on our Autumn 2024 club tour alongside the likes of Qrion, Rezident and Ezequiel Arias.
Nordfold’s ‘Pathways EP’ lands November 8 on Anjunadeep.

[item value="10"]Nordfold - Pathways EP [/item]
[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Nordfold is an artist with a clear vision, and his mind takes listeners on a variety of sonic pathways in this EP. The three tracks are sure to get the dance floor moving and the bodies shaking and swinging. “Pathways” is a proper progressive house production with a wobbly groove, pulsating basslines, chunky drums, and superb melodic layers, along with sensual strings and vocal snippets. The creative flair is evident throughout the track, taking listeners on a miraculous journey. “Neverland” is equally captivating and enthralling, featuring classic basslines that infuse a sense of nostalgia, uplifting piano notes, and cool atmospheric strings. The playful approach of the music directs the dance floor, creating an infectious and enjoyable atmosphere. Finally, “Breath” is the breaks outro moment, perfect for relaxing and revitalizing after a long, sweaty night out. This is another top EP that deserves the Anjunadeep stamp of approval. #PureGold Love iT[/content]
