TULUM, 17 Jan
Lehar 'Maybe Yes' on Renaissance Music
Lehar's 'Maybe Yes' reaches Renaissance Music, filed as progressive house and released on 22 December. Super Flu placed it 11th of 12 on his AMA chart, posted 14 January, as Tulum enters the first weeks of its season.
The weight of 'Maybe Yes' sits in the drums, the percussion neither crowding nor thinning the mix. It runs at a middling level, with moderate movement under the peaks, and plenty of light up top gives the track an open, lifted finish.
Renaissance Music was last covered on 26 October, with a release from Nadia Ali and Frankey & Sandrino, and 'Maybe Yes' marks Lehar's first full release on the label after previous remix work there.
The label said
Renaissance Music, Bandcamp about text · sourceHaving previously been on remix duty with Renaissance, Lehar steps into the limelight with his first full release on the label, 'Maybe Yes EP'. A heady concoction of retro synths, pulsating basslines and infectious drums, it makes for the perfect bookend to see out the year with a bang!
Considering the EP as a whole, you can hear why Lehar is one of the best musical storytellers around as 'Maybe Yes' delivers a boundless journey. '2nd September' is an emotive piece of electronica that runs deep with a modernist edge; 'Feelings', comes tinged with indie-nostalgia; whilst title track, from which the EP takes its name, is a barnstorming earworm, set to take Xmas, the new year and beyond by storm.
