Bahrain’s Zone+ Teams-Up with Lisbon-Based YokoO for Deep House/Minimal EP ‘Experiments’

Bahrain’s Zone+ has had quite an eventful past couple years, and has been racking up accolades through mixes and releases dropped on labels including All Day I Dream, Anjunadeep and Sol Selectas. On this latest release, Zone+ has joined esteemed French-Australian producer/DJ, YokoO, of All Day I Dream and Get Physical, releasing the collaborative EP through the latter’s Bandcamp as an exclusive release.

Experiments opens with ‘Solis Occasum’ (Latin for ’sunset’ ), a seven-minute deep house track centered by a simple, rumbling bassline, layers of intricately melodic one shots and snippets of stuttering vocals that lean closer to the realm of minimal techno. The ‘Alt Version’ of the track changes things up slightly, extending the breakdown and making it more atmospheric through smooth chords and trance-like melodies.
