Welcome to Future Focus an article series where we showcase some of the best music that’s on our radar. This week we have a deep cut from Polish producer Enjoii, a pop bop from Dooqu, a sophomore single from Vlossom, and a vibrant funk house release from Ferdinand Weber.

Enjoii - Vortex

Wave scene regular, Enjoii has graced our sound systems with, ‘Vortex’ a deep cutting piece of production.

‘Vortex’ expels attitude and determination to dominate the bass scene. Spirited synths and vivacious vocal cuts flood the soundscape as meaty sub bass and gritty beats ground the single. The delicate dance between light and dark is dismantled in dramatic fashion as ‘Vortex’ drops into the callous climax. Each element berates the other in a brutal clash. Enjoii employs a sturdy structure, defining the proxy war within governable bounds. This understanding the line between controlled chaos and disarray showcases the producer’s production prowess.

Dooqu - Help You (Feat. Silent Child)

Danish producer, Dooqu returns from a year long hiatus with ‘Help You' featuring the buoyant vocals of Silent Child.

'Help You’ is your quintessential electro pop tracks, but what sets it apart from its contemporaries is quality. Driving percussion cuts through a spacious soundscape before elevating to new heights with the introduction of lofty synths. Complimenting the prosperous production is the verdant vocals of Silent Child, who conveys an additional layer of divinity to an already impressive single. In a genre saturated by monotomy and uniformity, Dooqu has delivered a piece that is commercially viable while retaining charm and personality.

Vlossom - Tabs

Aussie outfit, Vlossom (Nick Littlemore & Al Wright) have returned with ‘Tabs’, a euphoric follow up from their debut release, ‘Catch Your Breath’.

‘Tabs’ is a textural listening experience, fashioned to transport the participant to another plane of existence. The synergy between indie pop and lavish electronica is flaunted with exquisite intricacies. Vlossom have translated an undeniably intimate and profoundly spiritual endeavour, into an understandable and consumer palatable experience. The flavourful nature of ‘Tabs’ is a lush insight to the Vlossom and their forthcoming EP.

Ferdinand Weber - All on You

Berlin and art are inseparable, so it’s clear that renown producer and DJ Ferinand Weber calls the city home. Weber’s newest single ‘All On You’ is a testament to the vibrant party scene and artistry that exudes from the German capital.

‘All On You’ is a playful house track that blends soulful samples of acclaimed American singer-songwriter Chaka Khan and rap trio De La Soul. Designed for the dance floor, Ferdinand Weber’s deep house production flirts with the funk centric samples and vivacious vocal cuts. The pure elation and cordial character of ‘All On You’ is perfect for a midnight groove or over a few drinks on a Sunday afternoon.
