About This Release
Continuing on our exploration of deep and melodic techno, Wide Angle Recordings is proud to welcome Montreal’s Gabriel Rhome to the label. Already picking up support from Hernan Cattaneo and more, Les Havres showcases Gabriel’s deep style with 3 groovy tracks all built upon a smooth low end foundation.
The EP opens with the funkiness of Ronde, a rich track perfectly balanced with crisp highs, lovely percussive synth elements, and a deep and driving bassline. The EP picks up pace with the second and title track, Les Havres. From the first kick to the last, Les Havres is designed for the dancefloor. The churning bassline provides a wonderful groove for the light melodic synth stabs to carry throughout the track. Convergences, the final track on the EP, once again displays Gabriel Rhome’s ability to deliver a solid low end while keeping interest with subtle harmonies and light percussion.
