Gorje Hewek follows up 2022's impressive Life EP, with a new five-track package brimming with collaborative spirit. The work also marks the Watergate label debut of the legendary Hernan Cattaneo. The artist is a mainstay of the All Day I Dream collective and a master of intricately woven electronic compositions, which also transfix the dancefloor. For his return contribution to Watergate Records he brings a string of cohorts in toe -- Dulus, Polo, and Molac from his excellent Shanti Records imprint, alongside ADID affiliate Roy Rosenfeld and Argentinean great Cattaeno. The opener "Altitude" is a dreamy bass-driven heater that unfolds beautifully over an eight-minute period and is highlighted by a key driven melody that's both playful and emotive. "Astro World" is an eclectic slice of organic house that captivates with a string-laden break before dropping down into a rhythmic second half. The EP's title track is a silky sunset cut resplendent with twinkling pads that has enough groove to seduce a dusty dancefloor. "Vida" begins life as a slinky percussive jam, before the dam breaks and a colorful river of melody drives the track home. A delight. "Kaleidoscope" stays true to its name driven by a lush chord melody that cascades throughout. A gem made for big moments.
