It utilizes deep, melodic synths that add to the mysterious vibes as Maurer’s vocal track eases in and echoes out. An all-around strong effort from a pair of rising stars in tech house production.[soundcloud url="https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/207668603" params="color=ff5500&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_comments=true&show_user=true&show_reposts=false" width="100%" height="166" iframe="true" /]Brigante is a passionate artist with a focus on quality.
