Stormhauser – Beach Haus
Thursday 15th June 2017
He Says: “Dance music is something I’ve always been a fan of, ever since I was a teenager. Coming from a classical background, and working as a composer and orchestral arranger I always wanted to produce music in this idiom as well, but have only recently turned my attention to start writing tracks in that style.
When I was growing up producers like Chicane, Robert Miles, Sash and Paul Oakenfold were at the top of the charts, and that Balearic dance sound was really what I loved to listen to. The ambient synths and lead sounds set against great beats were the sound of a generation, and a lot of that style is beginning to make its way back into the pop industry today.
Beach Haus is really a nod to that era, and was written as a way for me to dive into the genre and try out some ideas and sounds. Over the next few months I’m hoping to work on more new material and release an EP before the end of the year.”
We Say: “Nuances, twists and turns – Beach Haus takes you on a journey. Combining classical composing and well accomplished producer capabilities, it will be interesting to see how this new dance producer develops in 2017.”
Stormhauser is Belfast based classical composer and orchestral arranger Graeme Stewart.
