Liminal MX is a genre bending newcomer whose music is designed to take listeners to a space of introspection and spiritual liberation. His alias is drawn from a word that "represents the idea of being nowhere, neither physically nor mentally, but rather in an authentic and spiritual place within oneself”. The creative process behind Liminal takes place in the artist's studio, where the mind is freed and immersed in the search for unique rhythms and movement.
His studio work blends influences from deep house with organic percussion from afro, lush harmonies and melancholic melodies and smart R&B vocals to create an atmosphere that invites reflection and exploration of the deepest emotions. He has already released independently, as well as on Tortuga and now Marginalia whilst playing plenty of Europe's finest clubs.
First up, Liminal MX collaborates with Baqsy on ‘Hold Forever’ feat. Maria Caan which has frazzled bass and eerie pads all finished with a haunting vocal that draws you in deep. Next up, ‘Save Me’ is a tasteful minimal sound with spine tingling chords and deft vocal touches whilst ‘With Me’ layers up rubbery, rolling drums with supple synths and heart aching female croons. Meanwhile, ‘Remember’ keeps the drums flowing with more vocals that convey a real sense of pain and then brings beeping synth sequences to soft drum loops for more celestial escape. ‘Feel Me’ uses punchy, futuristic pads before leading into a hypnotic, distorted vocal cut whilst soft piano chords and ethereal elements echo throughout. ‘Fast Line’ adds texture to the deepness with some dirty guitar riffs acting as a nice edgy counter to the angelic vocals whilst ‘Complicated’ shuts down like a soothing deep house hymn for late night contemplation.
This accomplished album makes for a fully immersive journey through the forward thinking and emotional soundscapes of Liminal MX.
