Progressive virtuoso K3SS unveils spellbinding two-track melodic techno EP, Real, via Of Us Records

Posted by VMan on July 1, 2024

Progressive house producer/DJ K3SS is commemorating his biggest year-to-date with a string of releases that showcase his knack for developing unique soundscapes. 

The San Diego-based artist is known for his ability to evoke emotion and transport listeners to the dancefloor – a distinctive style that has garnered him a passionate fanbase and opportunities to perform at some of the most iconic venues in the United States such as Exchange LA, Musica Club New York City, 1015 Folsom San Francisco, The Midway SF, Nova San Diego, and more. K3SS has built a career around a dazzling array of impactful melodic releases and electrifying performances, which have led him to his recent collaborations “Deeper (feat. Britt Lari)” on Dim Mak and “Goodbye” with Dan Miles and XIMXIA. 

Additionally, he has been a four-time Groove Cruise performer over the past 3 years. His stirring releases have been featured on Steve Aoki’s Dim Mak, Black Hole Recordings, Paul Oakenfold’s Perfecto, Super8 & Tab’s Scorchin’ Progressive, Of Us Records, and more. His recent single “Deeper (feat. Britt Lari)” received heavyweight support from David Guetta and peaked at #4 on the Trance (Main Floor) Beatport chart. 

Last month, K3SS unveiled “Climb” on Krafted Underground, a transportive progressive house track that takes fans on a spellbinding listening experience. With a sultry, dark soundscape, “Climb” draws listeners in with futuristic synths and thumping kick drums that evoke the listener’s depth of emotion and desire. 

K3SS is shapeshifting from progressive house to melodic techno to release his newest EP, Real. The two-track package aims to leave a lasting impression of seduction, drawing listeners into a world where passion and excitement reign supreme. 

The EP kicks off with the title track “Real,” which is defined by its dark, propulsive bassline and progressive house elements that drive the song forward. The track captures the electric atmosphere and the initial spark that ignites when two people connect on the dancefloor, serving as a brooding tone-setter for a game of “cat and mouse.” 

The journey continues with “Come Home With Me” – a track that mirrors the anticipation and excitement that build as two individuals navigate their burgeoning chemistry. Characterized with rhythmic pulses and spellbinding melodies, “Come Home With Me” immerses the audience in the climax of the encounter, where the electric tension finally gives way to the raw, unfiltered emotions of passion and excitement.

With compelling beats, provocative undertones, and hypnotic melodies, the Real EP offers an immersive experience that echoes the exhilarating highs of new romance and the seductive pull of the dance floor.

Fans can catch K3SS playing his new Real EP at YOLO Nightclub in San Francisco, CA,  where he will be performing alongside DUBVISION on Friday, July 12. The artist is also slated to perform on the biggest edition of Groove Cruise on the Allure of the Seas from Wednesday, January 23 – Sunday, January 27, 2025.
