UPFRONTBEATS

Resonance Records is fast becoming one of the hardest-hitting tech house labels on the scene, the go-to imprint for those wanting a sure bet when it comes to a peak time aural delight. With names like Campelphat, Wade, Secondcity, Black Girl / White Girl, Mark Jenkyns and Solardo decorating the discography, it’s not difficult to see why it’s become so influential.

Label boss, Max Chapman, takes the reins to steer this next addition in the Resonance Records journey with the help of his Swing Sundays partner in crime and resident DJ, Georgie Marshall.

When it comes to throwing a knockout party, these two know exactly the right recipe and once you’ve pumped ‘Listen’ through a system on full, you’ll quickly realise they’re a dynamic duo in the studio too. ‘Listen’ strikes a winning formula right from the word go. With a bassline that smoothly rolls through the track, a layered vocal with a distinct soulful influence and an array of cleverly chosen effects – it’s a track that perfectly shows off the talent synonymous with this label.

Max is clearly exploding in the circuit right now, with a stack of Beatport #1s, a BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix, his debut at Paradise Ibiza, repeat Elrow bookings, tours of the US, South America, Australia and all over Europe, his stock has been on a meteoric the rise in the last 12 months.

Yet another concrete, hard hitting release from Resonance Records that will continue to cement their place amongst the heavyweight labels. Expect to hear this track doing serious damage to dancefloors through the rest of the summer and beyond.
