Marek Hemmann releases 'Higher' on Lovers & Strangers

Marek Hemmann's 'Higher' is out on Lovers & Strangers, a three-track EP.

The title track opens the release with a huge harmonic presence, building its energy through layered melodic work before settling into a driving, emotional core. It's the kind of opening statement that carries the EP.

Track two, 'Source', is a steady, dark cut that holds its groove without ever really pushing anywhere new. It sits in the middle of the record without demanding much attention.

'Orange' closes the EP back on harmonic ground, rounding out a release that leads with its strongest idea and lets the middle track settle into the background.
