Treason: A Dark Journey Through Melody and Emotion by Ben C & Kalsx
Ben C & Kalsx are back with their latest single, Treason, a track that seamlessly blends the raw energy of Dark Progressive House with a deeply emotional story.
“Treason is a piece that captures both melancholy and intensity,” the duo shares. While the track is crafted for the club scene, it never loses touch with its melodic roots, creating a soundscape that is both immersive and powerful.
The creative process behind Treason started with a central melody that Ben C & Kalsx wanted to make “epic and orchestral while maintaining an electronic edge.” The result is a complex theme that leans heavily on trance influences, fused with the rich textures of Dark Progressive House. As they explain, “We aimed to balance the melody’s intricacy, ensuring it stayed grounded without overwhelming the overall intensity of the track.”
A standout moment in the track is the cinematic break, where a mystery female choir and deep bass set the stage for a dynamic buildup. “Mixing this break was a challenge, but we’re proud of the way it combines emotion, intensity, and rhythm,” the duo says.
Originally intended for live performances, Treason eventually found its way to streaming platforms after some discussions. Ben C & Kalsx’s fans can expect a thrilling sonic experience that encapsulates betrayal, resilience, and the pursuit of redemption, with every note. “We hope this piece resonates with you and takes you on a journey between light and shadow,” they add.
