Australian talent Barzek returns to the label in 2016, following a series of inspiring releases, such as "Plateau," "Holiday" (feat. Victoria Ray), and "Erhu" -- all of which were collaborations with Jethimself. "Counting The Daze" is a blissful downtempo track from Barzek, featuring remixes from Delectatio (Portugal) and Andora Jane (Georgia).
A strong breakbeat is quickly established in the Original Mix, while countless intriguing melodies are added in the background. The lush piano theme plays beautifully in the break, where we also witness smooth percussion elements and soothing supportive melodies. Delectatio's remix takes things down a notch; introduced with the piano lead from the original, the track includes an intricate breakbeat and a variety of harmonizing synths. A brilliant guitar line emerges in the break, which is later replaced by a stunning new lead to finalize the song. Rounding out the release, Andora Jane provides a truly downtempo version of "Counting The Daze". The piano theme is brilliantly surrounded by mesmerizing string layers and captivating percussion lines.
