With so much of progressive house sounding like it came off a factory processing line.
It's always a joy to come across a track that while still seeped in that sound has that little bit extra that makes you prick up your ears.
One such track is 'Things Left Unsaid' by Introvert.
First up on this release is Micah's 'For The Ladies' Mix which reinvents 'Things Left Unsaid' into a tougher affair without forgoing the progressive
elements that are a staple to this track. Starting on a more melodic driven tip, distorted synths and spliced effects are soon layered over the track just
before the distinct beat comes into play. The main melody while a main feature is a little twisted in sound while a zippy little riff weaves in and around
that very melody, grabbing the listener's attention with both hands.
The original mix of 'Things Left Unsaid' is a sophisticated number that leans easily towards the deeper side of progressive house. This is definitely one
of the better quality progressive based tunes that I've had the pleasure of listening to of late. From the onset, a padded beat can be heard but on a subtle
basis as the melodic riff that gradually comes in quickly takes centre stage. Throughout, a warmer melody happily intertwines itself around a very restrained
bass as minute effects like the sound of water molecules quietly exploding are hinted at but never over power the track.
This is a very evocative track that allows the listener to lose themselves in the warmer folds of the composition. The gentle breakdown lends a helping
hand to the gradual key change in the riff, a very mature tune that works its magic effortlessly.
