dwelyr

dwelyr is the deeper moniker of progressive luminary Hausman, whose credits include releases on Purified, Sekora, Enhanced Progressive, and Anjunabeats. This week, this Sky Terrace resident drops a club-ready Moonlight Mixtape that has four on the floor and our heads in the clouds. He layers ethereal melodies and Lumynesynth’s powerfully emotive voice over driving rhythms infused with softness and shadow. This mix feels like flipping through a photo album as he reconstructs pieces of Radiohead, Death Cab for Cutie, and Coldplay using organic and melodic perspectives. Guitar riffs reminiscent of aughts post-rock and arrangements that hint at the golden age of trance are notable, but what makes this mix stand out is that the major moments are dwelyr’s own, from the first Sekora ID to the final fade of “Kenmore.”
