PREMIERE: Jozef K - Astrophel [Dreaming Forever]
“Astrophel” is undoubtedly, as the name hints, a track for star lovers. It’s a peak-time dreamscape whose rolling synth arpeggios, paired with a forward-moving beat, will move any dancefloor or make you dream up one while gazing at stars. Through being outgoing , but in “slow release” so to say, feet and phantasy are being engaged simultaneously. Appropriately, the track is one of four on the release that inaugurates Jozef K’s new label Dreaming Forever. The specific beauty of “Astrophel” is that the magic is released steadily and with patience over 8:20, playing with its intensity. During this time, we dance starstruck, reminded of timeless disco tracks but with more edge - which makes “Astrophel” an amazing track to bridge different moods during a DJ set. Jozef K has been known for releases on labels like Sungate and LNOE and collaborations with Tin Man, amongst others.
Founding Dreaming Forever marks a new phase in his career, focusing on his own, but mainly on the productions of other artists. The first release DF001 comes with two tracks by Jozef K and remixes by Tin Man and Skudge.
