Curation Picks: Rooléh - State Of Mind
Steve Robinson
Rooléh, a producer who is gaining serious traction, delivers a stellar track on Nick Curly's prestigious Cécille Records. As part of the four-track Some Time EP, the single "State Of Mind" is a deep, hypnotic house cut that showcases his signature style.
The track is built around a rolling bassline that feels like a real, live bass guitar, providing a hypnotic and constant groove. This melodic foundation is perfectly complemented by an equally hypnotic, looping vocal sample that builds a palpable tension through the breakdowns before a satisfying release on the drop. With exceptional drums providing the backbone, the track's journey climaxes with a final, key vocal stab that's been skillfully treated with a synth-like texture.
If you're looking for a meticulously crafted house record, this is one you need to check out.
