Welcome to the eighth edition of Future Focus, a wrap up of the best tunes in recent weeks. This feature showcases a diverse array of sonics from CLYPSO, Odd Mob, Svexx and Henry Green.

CLYPSO - Sidestep

Sydney dance pop producer and vocalist, CLYPSO has been on the rise with each vibrant release. Now she’s returned with a buoyant piece, ‘Sidestep’.

‘Sidestep’ retains CLYPSO’s bubbly and infectious persona where pristine percussion and vivacious vocals blossom within a tropical vista. CLYPSO captures the essence of falling for someone and the process of letting them know your feelings in a roundabout way. The charming character of ‘Sidestep’ is certain to resonate.

Odd Mob - Bad Moon (Feat. Kameron Alexander)

Brisbane’s Odd Mob has been a dance floor classic for some time. Now with the release of ‘Bad Moon’ featuring the sublime vocals of Kameron Alexander, the audacious act can add another succulent single to his catalogue.

The progressive dance focus of ‘Bad Moon’ are morphed with divine vocal stems result in a record that is equally mesmerising as it is ethereal. This amalgamation of a glitch centric production and a lofty lyrical aura generates a sense of escapism. ‘Bad Moon’ is an evolution for Odd Mob as he continues to bolster his stance as an acclaimed artist in the electronic landscape.

Svexx - Altitude

US producer and composer, Svexx challenges the bounds of convention with ‘Altitude’.

Born from a collaboration with a car cinematographer, ‘Altitude’s journey as a track morphs warm commercially familiar tones with a progressive production. The atmospheric and dreamlike nature of the single extends to the horizons, enveloping the listener into a world specifically designed for that sole purpose.  When coupled with a video, Svexx’s ‘Altitude’ is a masterclass in audio-visual world building.

Henry Green - Realign

UK based muso, Henry Green has presented us a slice of introspective electronica in ‘Realign’.

‘Realign’ is a lesson of the human condition and an individual’s perception of the world that surrounds them. The self-exploration and associated growth are achieved through a euphoric yet grounded composition. ‘Realign’ morphs analogue textures, warm vocals, and soothing electronica into an intimate package. With a raw rhythm, the record exudes a sense of vulnerability that renders with the soul.
