Hardt Antoine – I Will [Kompakt]
Acclaimed DJ, producer and Reculture label head Hardt Antoine returns with his eclectic new EP I Will, on Kompakt. Hardt Antoine’s latest two-track EP brings him back to the Kompakt mothership with a bang. Opener ‘I Will’ is a sensual, percussion-driven house anthem for those morning hours, when spirits are high and the sense of unity is palpable. ‘La Mosca’ takes a more hypnotic approach, putting a joyous chant of unknown origin to good use.
Seamlessly weaving between DJ, producer, label head and promoter, HARDT ANTOINE’s artistic credentials cut boldly through the dance music. His eclectic music taste – strongly stemmed from his mixed French and Jamaican heritage – muses between many genres including house, classical, soul and ‘80s pop, resulting in productions which blend exciting melodies, sprinkles of vocals and an abundance of groove – all underpinned with a temptatious techno kick. Across two tracks of hypnotic and artfully crafted electronic music, I Will is an EP that indicates 2024 will become another banner year for Hardt Antoine.
