#59 Feat. Hype in Deep House

Miguel Palhares makes a strong return to Piston Recordings with his latest two-track release, My Turn. Over the years, Miguel has developed a signature style that skilfully fuses deep, funky, and jackin house, while paying homage to timeless grooves. His journey in electronic music began at 19, when he stepped behind the decks, quickly building a reputation for his vibrant and eclectic sets at Portugals most iconic clubs. Since 2013, he has been making waves with releases on top labels, and were proud to have him as a long-standing contributor to Piston Recordings. As always, were eager to hear more from him in the future. The Original Mix gets us moving and opens with crispy hi-hats, sharp claps and a thick, punchy kick drum, laying down a solid groove. Modulated synths weave in and out, while a deep and warm bassline provides a groovy pulse. During the break, vibrant piano chords add warmth, accompanied by soaring high strings and cool diva style vocals. Delicate melodic notes float through the mix and smooth saxophone riffs glide effortlessly, adding a sensual touch. Johannesburg-based DJ and producer BNinjas is back on Piston Recordings with a superb remix. BNinjas has continued to impress with his steady stream of top-tier productions across various imprints. His consistent ability to craft floor-filling beats has made him a standout talent, and were excited to welcome him back once again. Here, the remix opens with a bass-heavy kick that drives the groove alongside raspy claps. Intriguing, FX-laden vocals with a metallic edge add a haunting, futuristic feel, while mesmerizing chord pads envelop the track in a dreamy ambiance. A deep and groovy bassline pulses beneath, providing infectious movement while otherworldly melodies float through the mix, blending with creative note sequences that keep the energy dynamic and unpredictable.
