Sante Shows Us Deeper Shades of House and Techno With "Awake"

Explore the darker corners of Santé's studio persona with his most compelling club track yet.

Following his much-awaited debut album Current, Santé's new EP Awake is an emotive, textured and subtle journey through the deeper shades of house and techno. Set for release on December 16 on Ultra Records, the 3 track EP delivers hypnotic keys and melancholic vocals that are layered over a rolling, groove-based percussion.

The EP includes remixes from techno heavyweight Agoria and Swiss producer Pablo Nouvelle. While one is a progressive rework with a rousing synth pattern and crisp kick drums, the other is a tender, down-tempo rendition that perfectly compliments the German producer/DJs latest offering.

Today THUMP exclusively premieres the sounds that are true to Awake's namesake melody. The release sees the Avotre label boss collaborate with vocalist J.U.D.G.E. Exploring the darker corners of Santé's studio persona, J.U.D.G.E's warm vocals add an intense depth to the record that makes for Santé most compelling club track yet.

It's yet another Santé production to ooze character, charisma, soul, colour and above all, a sense of humanity. This serves as a further reminder of Santé's high regard within the new deep house producers that have a different cut to their electronic jib.
