Trance | SUBMERSIVE’s “Slowmotion Ft. Cavale” Takes Trance To Fresh Levels
Posted by VMan on February 4, 2018
Ever since picking up his first drum stick at age ten, LA-based DJ and producer SUBMERSIVE has held a deep respect for the art of crafting rhythms. Though SUBMERSIVE only started releasing his own music a little over one year ago, his impressive productions have already earned him gigs at Illumination 2018 and Love & Lust’s Valentines Ball Massive. On his new single “Slowmotion”, SUBMERSIVE balances intense trance vibes with a perfect complement of haunting, stripped down vocals from Cavale. Embracing the contrast between Cavale’s vocal range and his churning, synth-based production, SUBMERSIVE demonstrates the raw power of melding modern trance production with talented vocalists.
