Duumu ft. Slyleaf - Illuminate (acaer Remix)

April 14th (which seems like an eternity ago), French producer Duumu released his 4 track Illuminate EP on Monstercat. Today Atlanta's acaer, fresh off the release of his track "Drunk" on the Jadū Dala/Sola compilation, returns with a remix of Duumu's title track. He's transformed the acoustically driven anthem into fluttery future bass that ups the intensity of the feels established in the original.

Slyleaf's vocals continue to paint a serene image, while finding more potency in the bed acaer's built. The whole revision screams of majesty, from the stripped down open through the resplendent rising of the tides and eventual flood of feelings found in flourishes during the drops. There's no denying the delightful nature of the sound design in the drop, but it's the seamless progression from steely to sultry synths that makes their playfulness so powerful and alluring. Whereas the original version of "Illuminate" brought the sun shine slowly over the mountain tops, acaer's remix is the equivalent of the rays bursting through the clouds following a violent storm.

Bump In The Hump Sneak Peek: Cozway - Reveries

I've long touted label Jadū Dala's ability to find and foster talent from across the globe. Their latest release, a cosigned compilation with Sola, runs through 10 tracks from Blush, acaer and Son-J, among others. One of those others, and the name I was drawn to first, was Cozway, in large part because of his Jadū release "Windbreaker." And this is where the story gets good: upon arriving on the soundcloud page I found that Cozway is from Victoria. Of course this means that he's eligible to be played on Radio Humber, and that's just what I'm going to do tonight on Bump In The Hump. His latest, "Reveries" has some of his trademark grit, among bent synths and powerful percussion. Download it free here.Joining Cozway on Bump In The Hump tonight, is fellow Jadū Dala/Sola alum, So Sus. It's another sublime summer themed episode running through disco house, big room, bass house, and tech house. I've got the hugely hyped Torro Torro, Smalltown DJs collab "House Shake" (as covered here), and a cut from Zeds Dead's Northern Lights Remixes album, alongside a slew of Radio Humber debuts. Catch Bump In The Hump live from 6-7 PM EDT, here.
