Genius Of Time conclude their vocal series this March with the third release in the series, comprising three originals and featuring vocalists Ashar Khan and Matinda.
Genius Of Time : When we began working on the Vocal Series, it was all about diving into our love for vocal-centric house music! One aspect that’s always fascinated us is how a strong vocal can carry a track alongside quite bare-bone beats. So with this project we wanted to put the vocal front and center and build dance tracks around the vocal hook. It’s been a bit of exploration for us to see where it’s possible to take the GoT project and also experimenting with vocals, using them as samples or in terms of using them as an acapella and almost remixing ourselves. Also, somewhat going back to the roots of good dance tracks that has been very inspiring to us, in its raw form of a good hook and a good groove. – Alex & Nils
Leading the release is title-cut ‘You Make Me’, fuelled by bumpy breaks, twitchy stab sequences, intricately intertwined vocal lines courtesy of Ashar Khan and fluttering synth melodies throughout.
‘Magnified’ follows, once again featuring Ashar Khan’s vocal stylings while sonically embracing a UK Garage leaning aesthetic with gritty bass swells, a crisp, shuffled rhythm section, airy chords and resonant licks. ‘Kinetic ft. Matinda’ then rounds out the release and the series in full, leaning into more raw, dubbed out house realms with gritty bass stabs, organic percussion, spiralling echoes and soulful vocal lines.
