The track is at once emotive and evocative, as Matador, Eynka, and Tailor employ a parade of progressive house beats and melancholic melodies to produce an unforgettable soundscape. Their latest release, “SIRENS,” is a masterstroke of reverberating intricacies around the conflicts between internal fears and desires, an internal travelogue that draws you into a reflective and nearly meditative space.
Acclaimed Irish live artist and DJ Matador takes across the track’s deep, atmospheric production, with an evolving time and tempo lending a pulled and pushed feel. Joining him are Eynka, the London-based trio of brothers Chris and Dave Hall and Joshua Field. In tandem, they bring “SIRENS” to life with beguiling energy, overlapping smooth vocals, and smudged and insinuative sound design. At the same time, Tailor, a UK singer, songwriter, and producer, drops vivid lyrics that enrich the emotionally laden story in this track.
Right from the start, you are engulfed in the mysterious vibe of the song. The opening hook is haunting yet familiar, beckoning you in with its soft, pleading tones. Midway through the song, it starts changing into a progressive house tune that maintains its contemplative nature. It is a reflection of life, the inner struggle, of wanting things, and of how one’s fears are so hard to shake off.
A kinetic/notch house matches the narrative beat that loyally captures the tension at the heart, the anthem it’s built around, which makes “SIRENS” so much unlike its dedicated club cousin. Personal, almost confessional, the track creates an intimate bond with anyone who has ever faced their devils. It is a song to get lost in while the beats soothe you as you reflect on the journey of self-discovery.
More than a typical progressive house track, “SIRENS” is an emotional journey through the complexity of the human mind, something that Matador, Eynka, and Tailor have put into their masterful creation. By its alluring production, potent lyricism, or both, this collaboration will likely stick.
