💫Thank you for supporting “Muir Woods”, number FIVE on the Prog Charts!

🤸🏽I’m pleased to see my latest EP with remixes by J Lauda Music and Lackofaffekt smashing the progressive house charts on Beatport. As well as entering the top 100 over releases and being pushed by as their Hype Picks 💙

☀️As I mentioned in previous posts, I sat down to write this track 2 years ago as the first to be part of my live sets.

🌳It was deeply inspired by my experiences in Northern California’s Muir Woods, and the writings of its namesake, the great outdoors adventurer John Muir. It took a life of its own as forests do.

🧘🏽‍♂️I wasn’t sure if I would ever even release it but when I ran it by Josh from JourneyDeep Records he encouraged me to do so, and now here we are.

💪🏽Both J Lauda and LackOfAffekt delivered absolutely brilliant remixes and I’m ecstatic to see this EP doing so well.

🔮Oftentimes we write music that we aren’t sure will be well-received. I’ve been proven wrong in the past and I’m happy to experience this once again!

🐪Happy Humpday!

😘

🌳Muir Woods that inspired my “Muir Woods” EP out now on JourneyDeep Records

Several years ago I had the privilege of hiking into the Muir Woods and witnessing the beauty that John Muir described in his many writings - as well as taking this goofy pic 🤪

☀️Just about two years ago when I was first getting my AKIVA project started, I decided to start writing a track as the basis of my live sets. That record became what is now “Muir Woods” and has been a staple in my live sets as one of my opening tracks.

💫Complete with a spoken word sample from of John Muir’s books, I am incredibly stoked to have the original out now along with incredible remixes from J Lauda Music and Lackofaffekt 💪🏽

☄️Even more ecstatic to see it climbing the progressive house charts – currently at number 12 over on Beatport as well as being featured at number 9 by the Beatport staff as best new releases 🥲

🤜🏽If you fancy supporting it, please hit the links below to grab a copy as well as stream it over on Spotify.

I also crafted a special Beatport chart to commentate the occasion💙

🧘🏽‍♂️On behalf of myself, the remix artists and Josh Powelson from the label – a massive thank you to everyone for their love on this release ❤

Here’s to many more!

thanks y’all 🥳

💫“Muir Woods” with remixes from Lackofaffekt and J Lauda Music is OUT TODAY via JourneyDeep Records 🌳

➡️My next original with two incredible remixes is available now via the link in the comments⬅️

🔮About the release: “Muir Woods” is a very special track for me as it was the first track I wrote with a focus on performing it live. It has also been used in a couple of my live sets as an opening track and while it’s groovy and dance music oriented it is also a more “indie dance”/“avant-garde” styled.

As the title implies, it draws massive inspiration and its mood from the incredible scenery of northern California’s Muir Woods. As well as the legendary John Muir himself, whose writing is sampled via an audio bit in this record.

☝🏽J Lauda and LackOfAffekt deliver 2 incredible melodic/progressive remixes that I’m very ecstatic about - thank you both!

And of course, credit to Josh from the label for his support in this project and my vision with the music🤸🏽

☄️Hope you guys give it a whirl and dig it ☀️
