COVER OFFICIEL EP NIGHTS.jpg

MARGEE - NIGHTS EP

Hey Squids,

Super proud to welcome the first EP of Margee on Calamar Records and also our first one on the label to start off 2021 on the good foot ;)

Nights is a moving voyage to one side of Margee's universe. Usually known for his slower grooves, Margee decides to shake us up and shows in Nights a darker yet energetic part of his musical world. This EP is an ode to the night scene and to the freeing dancefloors we've been taken away from, in hope that they will soon return back to us.
2 beautiful original tracks show us the complicated perfection of Margee's groove. On 'Nights' and 'Tunnel Ride' you can feel that he is a true musician at heart. We're going from deep house to indie with some touches of synth wave, always pleasant to the ears. The travel is sweet, as Margee himself, and a haven of experimentation in many genres he loves to dig into.

We also have 2 really cool remixes from the neat producer Vander and his indie breakbeat version of 'Nights', and an other remix from Moo & Jo and Demayae of 'Tunnel Ride' with some stunning vocals by the young and talented KLA.
