Resonance Records co-owner George Smeddles delivers his first full release on the label with three high-octane productions with Darius Syrossian and Konflicted Soul on remix duties.

Founded by Max Chapman, Resonance Records has been purveying dancefloor-focused house since its birth nearly five years ago. Its roster reads like a who’s who of distinguished producers, featuring the likes of wAFF, Solardo, Cera Alba, Jey Kurmis, Montel, and many more. Having appeared on Hot Lipps, Define Music and Music Related Records, 24-year-old UK talent George Smeddles is quickly cementing himself as one to watch and his release on Resonance clearly displays why.

A wiggly bassline and echoing effects join subtle vocal snippets in the groove-fuelled cut named ‘Baby Drums’. Intricate percussion and an expertly chopped vox then forms ‘Lee Talk More Dance’ before the rumbling low-end and trippy tones of ‘Unique’ concludes Smeddles’ originals. Do Not Sleep founder to weekly resident and a&r ( alongside Matt Tolfrey ) Darius Syrossian then reinterprets ‘Baby Drums’ whilst incorporating his signature low-end throbs until ElRow producer Konflicted Soul concludes the package with an energetic remix of ‘Unique’ featuring classic house nuances.
