Release Info:
There are tracks that outlive the moment of their making… 'Downriver', Roger Martinez's debut on Guy J's Lost & Found imprint, was one of those. A hypnotic, chunky piece that locked you into a shamanic spell, aided by the atmospheric sounds of the jungle riding over a filtered groove. Chunky yet restrained, holding the vibe, before an enchanting vocal dropped and rearranged everything you thought you knew about the track. Released in 2015, it became one of the defining statements of that particular strain of deep, patient, story-driven progressive music.

A decade on, HIGHER STATES returns to the source. Two remixers are handed the original, each arriving from a very different point on the map. Nicolás Rada has been at the forefront of the Progressive House scene for the better part of two decades, building a catalogue that spans Nick Warren's The Soundgarden and Hernan Cattaneo's Sudbeat, with over 400 production credits to his name. Heavily influenced by progressive rock roots, he always understood that a track is a narrative: something that moves, that breathes, that slowly builds and goes somewhere. His rework of Downriver arrives from that same place of deep listening.

Spencer Brown is a San Francisco artist who mainly releases on Anjunadeep, Bedrock and his own diviine label. Having charted at the top of the Beatport charts across Progressive House, House, Techno, Trance and Deep House, this restlessness is less dilettantism than it is a producer who genuinely cannot be contained by genre. Spencer reinterprets the original in a mystical way, airing out the original vocal sequence and focusing and accentuating the bass pattern of the original piece.

Together, the two remixes frame the original from opposite ends of the Progressive spectrum, while in the sonic space between them, Downriver flows on...
