Brazil-born and Australia-based artist Hoten presents his first studio album, 29 Summers out via 43 Degrees Records.
9 records composed the incredible album which is a dynamic journey through melodic and tech house music. The album kicks off with Sunrise and its rolling and tribal percussions. It really feels you’re watching the sunrise from a tropical beach. Mana rapidly follows with plucked and synth-driven melodies and a minimal beat that flows into Across The Ocean. The track introduces dreamy and romantic lines that turn into a catchy and electronic rolling rhythm in High Spirits. Next Relentless goes a bit more hypnotic and deep with its main melody acting as the opening for the album’s title track. 29 Summers include cinematic and idealistic harmonies paired with progressive beats. Temptation on the other end goes way deep and techno-oriented with a stripped main theme and profound arpeggios. Once again, Circle brings back the initial pleasant sounds paired with progressive percussions and rhythmic themes. Closing up, Last Goodbye delivers the most relaxing vibes of the tune, waiting for the sun to go down.
Hoten’s 9-track record collection will take you on a journey through his favorite sides of house music, while also stamping his best work to date. The album is a true statement of who Hoten has become as an artist, translating his experiences throughout 29 Summers of his life, paving his way to develop a career as a music producer and consolidate his name in the industry, seamlessly mixing elements from progressive, deep, tech, breakbeat, and more. It combines a variety of techniques and styles he’s picked up over the years, so expect a variety of unique sounds and genre crossovers.
The whole album is out now via his own imprint 43 Degrees Records here.
