Its always a treat we we get something in our inbox/mailbox that makes you go “holy sh*t this is good”. Well that’s the case with the songs we’ve been getting from Human|Nature recently. Comprised of Ben Camp, Mat Leutwyler and Wally C, they are on a mission to create “quality music to share with the world, and to help others do the same”. From what I’ve heard so far? Totally on the right track.
This comes from their 1st official release, Ben Camp’s - The Internet is Broken EP. Its a throw back to some of older progressive house roots, but with way more energy and excitement. It starts with a simple and bouncy bass line leading into a catchy computerized vocal hook: “To all my people in the front, let me see you shake it”. From there it picks up more and more and peaks at around the 5 minute mark with a crescendo of gritty bass-lines and background guitar riffs. Its been a while since I’ve heard a solid track that’s both danceable all the way though, and yet takes the time to build up to something ever greater. I’m sure everyone is going to hate me saying it like this but: Ben Camp’s “The Shuffle” is the progressive house for new rave. Seriously, I’m not kidding.
I had a hard time choosing what to post from their sampler packs, but I ended up going with melodic piece from sampler pack 001:
More on the trance side of the fence, “Paris” holds strong with its sweeping melodic harmonies underscored with measures of slow attack bass-synths. Its so far from what I normally post up, but its a complex 8-1/2 min stereoscopic journey though sound sure to illicit color-filled explosion inside your mind (got carried away with the descriptors there, sorry!). This is an excellent compliment to show the diversity in Human|Nature’s musical talent.
