Black Hole Recordings proudly introduces a new addition to the artist roster with the signing of Dallas, Texas-based DJ/producer, Pōston. Though the name might not yet sound familiar, Pōston will likely be found at the top of the charts with memorable vocal trance tunage, beginning with his first single, “Stranded,” and a catchy follow up with Linnea Schössow due later this summer.
With his debut effort, Pōston joins forces with London dance music artist, Lizzie Curious, for a seven minute spine tingling rollercoaster. Poston’s masterfully crafted production skills take center stage just as “Stranded” begins with a crisp, pounding bassline. Building quickly like crashing waves, larger than life snares soon intermix, making way for a mystical chord progression that highlights Lizzie’s unique, haunting vocal performance.
Fans of Lizzie’s massive 2011 hit collaboration, “Departures” with Robbie Rivera/Cosmic Gate, will appreciate the self-penned vulnerable yet relatable lyrics that keep “Stranded” in a league of its own. Poston further cements that notion with a hair raising breakdown capable of wringing every subtle nuance of emotion from each listener. The dark yet uplifting breakdown features sweeping strings and solemn piano chords before the crashing bassline returns with a dash of added spice to disrupt the dancefloor.
Together with Lizzie Curious, Pōston’s major label debut sets the standard of modern vocal trance at it’s very finest. Don’t miss the first single of this rising star’s discog; “Stranded” hits Beatport EXCLUSIVELY on June 9th!
Think positive. Be happy. x
