Even though temperatures aren't at the level I would like them to be, I've been getting back to running again. After a 5 month break it feels awesome and while winter running is new to me, being wrapped and running in deserted areas has been such a mind-elevating experience. I love doing this while listening to progressive house and electronic music, so have been putting extra effort into finding such music. That's how I ended up stumbling upon Yotto & Cassian's lush instrumental "Grains".

Taken from their 4-track release Rogue (Nov 2020 via Odd One Out Records), this 4 minutes and 44 seconds composition i s real power-horse. Powerful kicks, spaced out vocals and intense synths - it literally feels what wind would sound like if it was music.

I've been a fan of Australian producer Cassian for a while now, but Yotto was a new name in my book even though he's quite a prominent name in the scene with a BBC Essential Mix and support by people like Annie Mac, Solomun and Eric Prydz under his belt. Also, them visuals...
