Modd sits at the heart of the deep and organic end of the house spectrum with cultured grooves that move you emotionally and physically. He has released tracks on numerous top labels and also heads up his own Something Special and Cultural Code, where he continues to nurture an ever-evolving style. As a DJ, he has played major stages such as Coachella, Tomorrowland, and Printworks, and is a go-to for selectors like Lee Burridge, Bedouin, and radio hosts across BBC Radio 1, Kiss FM, and Ibiza Global Radio. Here he works with Voice Of Babylon, a new project from Denis Reshetnikov.
Their latest offering, coming out Sasha’s Last Night On Earth, sees the producers dive deep into rich melodic worlds. Say the pair of the collaboration: “We’ve been friends for a long time and always wanted to do something different from our usual organic sound. So we decided to push the envelope and create a beautiful, melodic, and danceable release that reflects our soul and showcases our vision of modern music.”
The wonderful ‘Bomond’ kicks off with breezy synths and soft melodic sequences that bubble high in the sky above a slinky groove and textured bassline. Angelic vocal coos complete this most blissful escape. The equally tender and heartfelt ‘Hymn Of The Fern’ marries lofty pads with luminous synths that warm the soul and arouse the senses with their tactile textures as the rich beats roll on and keep you hypnotised. Last but not least is ‘Magellan,’ another meticulous sound with wafty drums and pads that are graceful and elegant as they lift you off your feet and up amongst the most gorgeous melodies. All three cuts are the antidote to busy minds and stressful day-to-day life.
To celebrate the release, we welcome Modd back to our Main Mix series with a magical, moving hour. Enjoy!
