Prepare to be transported to a sun-drenched dancefloor with Kenny Knight's latest single, "Paradise Heat." Released on his own Coastline Recordings label, this two-track offering showcases Knight's signature blend of vintage and modern house elements, creating a sound that's both nostalgic and fresh.
The Main Mix of "Paradise Heat" is a masterclass in building a vibe. Knight weaves together spoken word samples and soulful vocal drops, creating a vocal tapestry that's ear-catching. Underneath, a tough four-on-the-floor beat and insistent bassline provide the perfect foundation for the track's other elements to shine. Vintage chord stabs and lush '70s-style strings create a rich, textured soundscape, while spacey effects add an otherworldly touch. But the real star of the show is the main Moog synth riff, which takes control and leads the way, guiding the listener on a journey through Knight's sonic paradise.
For those who prefer their house music a bit more stripped-down, the Dub Mix of "Paradise Heat" delivers. Here, Knight puts the focus squarely on the track's classic-style synth lead, allowing it to take center stage. Extra percussion elements, exclusive to this mix, surround the analog layers, creating a sound that's both punchy and groovy.
With "Paradise Heat," Kenny Knight and Coastline Recordings have delivered a timeless and timely house cut that's sure to be on repeat at pool parties and late-night gatherings alike. Don't sleep on this one – "Paradise Heat" is the real deal.
