Need Me by Ben Evers

Ben Evers is on a seriously hot run right now. After plenty of standout tunes in 2024, including originals on this label and Live at Robert Johnson, the Adana Twins man is back with more of his stylish house fusions. They again draw on a wide spectrum of influences and prove him to be a real studio wizard with rich sound designs and plenty to say.

The brilliant "Need Me" is high on emotion, thanks to the passionate vocal that brings inescapable pain. The synths are sleek and fire across the mix, with chunky drums and bass bringing the weight down below. It's got a summery edge that is sure to make it an early anthem as the days warm up.

Italian remixer and Panorama Bar resident Massimiliano Pagliara has done it all, from hard techno to tender house. His charming sounds have appeared on top labels like Paramida's Love On The Rocks, Permanent Vacation, and Live At Robert Johnson, and he brings his musical touch to this original. Though his version is rawer and has a techier foundation, it is infused with rushes of sleek neon synths. The vocals are stripped back and used as subtle motifs as the whole thing powers on amongst twinkling melodies.
