J.Deere 420 marks his first outing on Piff records with his signature bass-ridden techno flair and expertly crafted atmospheres.

Often blending multiple styles within one epic soundscape, J.Deere 420 seamlessly journeys between sounds and genres across his productions. State of Exaltation harnesses the dynamism and style that you can expect to see much more of in the future from the budding artist.

The opening track ‘Arrakis Dream’, a nod to one of his favourite sci-fi franchises, hosts rolling subby bass, galactic synths and progressive arps to transport you to another part of the universe. A true taste of the flavour to come from the EP.

‘Summer Cruising’ gently invites you in with a warm blend of evolving pads, layered over a rich bass, that suddenly dives into a pumping offering, with crisp hats and tribal percussion. A prime example of J.Deere displaying his multi-layered approach to his tracks.

A more driven direction with ‘Supersonic’, sees an array of atmospheric pads, vocals and leads that combine above an ever present kick and bass, which push the track onwards into new elements and emotions.

‘Woob Philosophy’ features a more stripped back goa style and playful touch. As is now anticipated from the artist, a more uplifting combination of elements creates a beautiful soundscape of a progression towards the close.

The release was fortunate to feature a remix from Zouave. Approaching ‘Arrakis dream’ with a more breakbeat inspired tact, focussing more on the percussive elements and grittiness of the drums, Zouave contributes an incredibly well suited take on the opening track to round off the release in resounding fashion.

After his debut EP, Tier (2021, Tannhäuser Gate), Hoara returns with Pricks, a project entirely focused on euphoria and dancefloor energy. Through three impactful tracks, he blends broken beats, deep basslines, and ethereal melodies, shaping sonic landscapes that are both powerful and introspective.

To complete the journey, our resident J.Deere 420 revisits the eponymous track with all his skills, while top-flight duo Cwtch deliver a personal reworking of ‘Sobra’, full of finesse and vision.
