GMJ & Jamie Stevens – Artist Profiles
Melbourne-based producer Gavin Martin operates under the GMJ moniker, also running the Fulcrum project. GMJ delivers progressive house and deep house across labels including Proton Music, Balance Music, and Meanwhile, exploring funky and deep tekky territories.
Australian producer Jamie Stevens is a founding member of electronic trio Infusion, performing and producing since the early 1990s. His solo work spans progressive house and melodic techno across labels including Bedrock Records, Lost & Found, and Balance Music.
GMJ joins fellow Australian Jamie Stevens for an exceptional two track EP that should appeal to a wide ranging slice of dance music fans. If you’re after a mature electronic music release that knows how to hit the emotional core then you will be in for an absolute treat.
On ‘Becoming’, we are presented with a masterclass in progressive house. The bass bellows and rumbles deep, working so well alongside the percussion and kick that you would be happy with just that. However, the melancholic key stabs, put oh so slightly through the fx ringer, and the smooth breakdown elevates this into an absolute must have for any respectable main room.
It’s a swirl of melodies, percolating percussion and automated stabs that lock the ‘Force of Nature’ groove. But, it’s the slightly discordant synths that take centre stage and during the breakdown a slight FM vocal appears before you’re pulled back into the full therapeutic vortex of ‘Force of Nature’.//
