Issued on his own Colour and Pitch label, ‘Saint Elias’ is the latest release from UK producer, DJ and musician Sumsuch. Meditative and relaxed in nature, ‘Saint Elias’ was inspired by a handmade religious icon discovered in rural Cyprus, as depicted on the EP’s cover. Smooth chords and simple lyrics repeated like a mantra create an atmosphere of deep reflection over almost ten minutes, perfect for the terrace at sunset. Second original track ‘First Met You’ is a languid house workout featuring tight drums, warm pads, whispered vocals and a heavyweight analogue bass-line, constantly manipulated and filtered throughout to give visceral sense of movement. Completing the package, New York producer and 3Bridge Records artistic director Eric Shans takes ‘Saint Elias’ into nightclub territory, adding swirling chords and his own subtle vocals to create a powerful, cinematic remix.
