Because of Art 'Azure' on Anjunadeep

Dosem has been one of the most consistent presences across Anjunadeep and the wider melodic house scene for years, and his most recent chart for the label is a clear reflection of the circles he moves in. Among the twenty-nine records in that selection, nine are on Anjunadeep, which says a great deal about the strength of the label's current output, and one of the records in that group is Because of Art's 'Azure'.

'Azure' is the label's 36th release of 2024, and it is a record that works from a simple, effective idea: the harmony sits well out in front of the drums, while the percussion itself carries very little incident, letting the melodic content do all the work. The result is a temperate track, one with a fair amount of give under its peaks and an airy top end that keeps the whole thing feeling light. It is not a record that arrives with a great deal of drama, but it does not need to, and its patience is part of its appeal.
