KALEENA ZANDERS RELEASES ‘GLORIFIED’ EP

Out now via Helix Records

Internationally celebrated LA-based artist, powerhouse singer-songwriter, DJ and producer, Kaleena Zanders, is proud to present her highly anticipated new EP, ‘GLORIFIED’. Out now via Helix Records, the four-track collection showcases Zanders' incredible dynamic range, expressive energy and genre-blending artistry, offering fans a bold exploration into her inimitable brand of soulful, pop-infused electronic music.

The ‘GLORIFIED’ EP is a triumphant addition to Zanders' growing catalogue of hits, and follows the previously released EP singles ‘LOOKING FOR JOY’, ‘BURN IT DOWN’ and ‘DADDY KEEPS CALLING’ (with Tchami), which have already garnered widespread attention from the global music community this year. Now, completing the package with the blistering title track ‘GLORIFIED’, Kaleena concludes her most impactful opus to date with another truly spirited offering, as bubbling Nu Disco house grooves, frenzied strings and soaring vocals provide the perfect tonic to those end-of-summer blues.

 

Talking about the title track, Kaleena commented:

 

“GLORIFIED is the ultimate musical mating call to a lover that you are obsessed with and want to impress even more. I would say this is perfect for the beginning stage of a new love. Nothing better than crooning to an effervescent, sizzling, nu disco song to make your lover fall even deeper in love with you. In addition, I think this is a side of me that not too many people see unless you are very close to me. The thing is…I love LOVE and love to be in love. <3”

 

Speaking about the full EP, Kaleena continued:

 

“The overall GLORIFIED EP comes from a character that I’ve made who is a superhero. This particular superhero is a vessel to heal people and things through frequency (music and sound) & that connects people to a deeper version of themselves and the harmony of the universe. Glorified is also a spiritual journey of self-discovery and rebirth and this superheroes quest to dismantle her own conditions so she can love unconditionally”.

Kaleena Zanders' revolutionary voice and magnetic presence in the dance community are undeniable. She is a prolific vocalist, songwriter and DJ who captivates audiences with her remarkable stage presence, gospel influenced sounds and powerful vocals. With the release of her ‘GLORIFIED’ EP, she further solidifies her position as an undisputed superstar on the international electronic music scene; her ability to transcend genres and deliver music that connects on a deeper emotional level continuing to set her apart as a unique voice in the industry.

QLANK UNVEILS HIS FIRST MULTI-TRACK RELEASE ON IN / ROTATION WITH HIS LATEST FOUR-TRACK 'THERAPY' EP

Qlank offers a collection of commanding bass house tracks following the EP's lead single

Qlank returns to Insomniac’s offshoot imprint IN / ROTATION on October 15th with his four-track ‘Therapy’ EP. Demonstrating his unrivaled technical skill and mastery


over grimace-inducing low-end, the EP is another exceptional exploration of bass house that is poised to heal the mind, body and soul.

 

Leading the charge is the EP’s lead single and title track, “Therapy,” a potent bass house track that drew coverage from notable publications including EKM, Find Your Sounds, Sick Music World, and This Song Slaps.

 

Second in line, “Get Low” is a nasty bass house cut that lands a lethal punch below the belt. Built around guttural vocal loops, the track weaves through remnants of an iconic hip-hop melody. The classic hook is peppered in-between squawking synth shots, chirping accents, bleeping fills, and slinking percussion.

 

Next up, “Technical” takes its title to heart. Meticulously crafted and hitting with surgical precision, the track features a stone-cold bassline countered by squelching synth accents and an anticipatory, winding build that erupts into an unrelenting

low-end groove. Closing out the project is “Control,” a track with laser-like synth and chopped vocals that shimmer atop a rigid, driving four-on-the-floor rhythm.

 

“This EP has been in the works for about a year now—probably the longest I’ve held tracks before releasing them,” says Qlank. “I wasn’t sure about them at first with the way the industry has been going but everyone said I need to release them. So thank you to everyone for telling me as they are finally coming out, hahaha.”

 

Detroit-bred producer Qlank has cemented his status as a staple within the bass house community. Despite already harnessing a world’s worth of street cred to his name, the bassline mastermind continues to defy expectations with his one-of-a-kind approach. Known for going against the grain with quirky, offbeat sound design and muscular low-end, he’s earned widespread radio support from the likes of Martin Garrix, Bijou, Firebeatz, Casmalia, Tomo Hirata. Qlank also recently provided live support for Dr Fresch’s Spring Tour, further solidifying his reputation as one of the most exciting names in the scene.

Qlank is a Detroit bred house artist with his own unique but cohesive style combining bass heavy sounds and traditional house elements. Amongst several self releases, this Icon Collective Graduate has also released on larger labels such as Spinnin Records, Night Bass, Confession, In-Rotation, Box Of Cats, Bite This, Pinnacle Records, Noir

Sur Blanc and World Famous Headquarters proving that his sound is meant to be heard on a more massive scale. Although his roots have been based in house music for many years, his new sound has also been influenced by dark and industrial bass music. With this edgy fusion sound, Qlank is absolutely an artist to be on the look out for!
