The unsung hero of melodic techno prepares to step up to the Poker Flat plate for a second time, continuing the partnership that began with the epic ‘Planet Funk EP’ earlier this year. Vince Watson is a stalwart of the scene and truly in a league of his own: an unparalleled discography, a singular flair for arrangement, and a signature sound of lush layers and deep irresistible grooves. ‘Rock It’ is another complete chapter written in Watson’s unique vocabulary.

The EP’s title track’s swift pacing and bright multi chords-create a constant state of uplift and progression, movement and light. Subtle changes and hypnotic building loops drive this number towards a state of blissful contradiction: slow-burn euphoria.
‘Sonar’ contains all the scale, emotion and colour that the title may suggest; a prominent chord progression is sustained throughout, running through the track like a shot of neon, ensuring its future a peak time anthem.

‘Feel It’ is the yin to the yang of the previous tracks, easing into a looser, deeper tech house tempo, and unravelling tight melodic harmonies for breezy watercolour washes of pads; the ‘Freestyle Mix’ pairs gauzy tones and staccato keys for the type of result that’s the perfect accompaniment to a rising sun, while the Instrumental mix opts for precision and crisp chords for maximum mixing ease.
