The Ballad EP: 4-Track Melodic House & Techno Release

Behind the Melodic House & Techno : Release Notes

Locked Music proudly presents its second official release, an EP by Argentine producer Kev Williams, marking a new step forward in the label’s developing sonic identity. The release features three original tracks by Kev Williams, alongside a remix by Barcelona-based producer and DJ no_ip, delivering a cohesive yet dynamic statement rooted in contemporary electronic music. Opening the EP, “Modernist” sets a hypnotic tone. Built around driving stabs and textured chords, the track is elevated by a female vocal that drifts through the arrangement, creating an immersive and introspective atmosphere. The second track, “Try” explores a unique crossover between electro-influenced rhythms and house aesthetics. A deep bassline anchors the track, while the drum programming and vocal elements intertwine to form a distinctive and forward-thinking groove. For the third cut, no_ip delivers a club-focused reinterpretation of “Try”. The Barcelona producer injects the original with a more direct dancefloor energy, blending its defining elements with his own signature style. Punchy low-end, rich textures, and detailed production make this remix a peak-time weapon designed for the club environment. Closing the EP, “The Ballad” reveals a more melodic and reflective side of Kev Williams sound. With clear references to classical music and wind instruments, the track unfolds like a modern electronic ballad, providing a cinematic and emotive ending to the release. This second reference reinforces Locked Music’s commitment to showcasing distinctive producers and carefully curated electronic music, balancing club functionality with artistic depth.
