Under this progressive new moniker, Kasztan delivered his debut EP \u201cRare Earth Elements\u201d to high acclaim back in September 2021, directly followed by his 2022-released \u201cCeleste\u201d and \u201cUnbleach\u201d EPs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Kasztan - I Can\u2019t\" width=\"702\" height=\"395\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/H0e2LheedaA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:1px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As a natural progression into his sound and his career, the French native launched his own label Stemina Recordings shortly after, fostering collaborations with like-minded artists and providing them with a distinctly progressive platform to share their musical endeavors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Standing as one of electronic music\u2019s most impressive and forward-thinking newcomers, Kasztan has now dropped &#8216;Water Soldier&#8217; ahead of the release of his &#8216;Air Mass&#8217; EP. Set for release on September 22, Kasztan\u2019s forthcoming \u2018Air Mass\u2019 EP is a masterclass in genre cross-pollination and serves as another refined example of his unrelenting artistry and technical studio knowledge. Marking his first original extended player for his own Stemina Recordings, the offering follows singles \u2018Working Together\u2019 and \u2018Mzella,\u2019 as well as collaborative releases with Felower and HAELIUM. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI had just declared that my EP was completed and I began fiddling in Ableton with a modular glitch sound. It immediately inspired me to create a track that would be less grandiose and more urban than what I typically make. I was then introduced to neo-soul singer Dahlie through my manager, who co-runs Stemina Recordings with me. The song was wrapped in less than a week, and it was an amazing match, so much so that it became one of the EP&#8217;s main tracks,\u201d Kasztan said about his latest release and his forthcoming EP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Kasztan - Water Soldier feat Dahlie (Visualizer \/ Lyrics Video)\" width=\"702\" height=\"395\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/3EYPpbGYjHY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:1px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Undoubtedly one of the stand-out cuts on the EP, \u2018Water Soldier\u2019 is a genre-bending fusion of bass, garage and experimental electronica, wrapped in a warming pop format. Welcoming esteemed vocalist Dahlie, Kasztan\u2019s latest sonic gem nods to influences of neo-soul, providing an emotive edge to this simultaneously accessible and thought-provoking production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Kasztan<\/strong><strong> \u2013 <\/strong><strong>Water Soldier<\/strong> is <a href=\"mailto:https:\/\/idol-io.ffm.to\/watersoldier\"><strong>out now<\/strong> <strong>via Stemina Recordings<\/strong><\/a><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Find Kasztan on:<\/strong> <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/kasztanmusic\/?hl=en\">Instagram<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Kasztanmusic\/\">Facebook<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.beatport.com\/label\/kasztan\/97661\">Beatport<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/kasztanmusic\">Soundcloud<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/artist\/3BEaofPMIG8RjlhTXbYlmE?si=eB3G0Lv6Q1-GUpxve_7AUQ\">Spotify<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:9px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">You May Also Like: <\/h5>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ticketfairy.com\/word\/2023\/08\/01\/alesso-john-newman-team-up-on-call-your-name\/\">Alesso &amp; John Newman Team Up on \u2018Call Your Name\u2019<\/a><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ticketfairy.com\/word\/2023\/08\/01\/the-caracal-project-drops-his-most-ambitious-record\/\">The Caracal Project Drops His Most Ambitious Record<\/a><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ticketfairy.com\/word\/2023\/07\/31\/huyana-tunes-into-jazz-and-blues-on-new-debut-ep-anxious-attachment\/\">Huyana Tunes into Jazz and Blues on New Debut EP \u2018Anxious Attachment\u2019<\/a><\/h5>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The &#8216;Air Mass&#8217; EP is set for release on September 22 on Kasztan&#8217;s Stemina Recordings imprint.
