Reckoning Records is elated to announce the forthcoming release of Yashar Sargordan’s debut EP on our label, titled ‘Northern Lights’. Slated for release on December 22, 2023, this offering from Yashar promises to be a deep, progressive house marvel, taking listeners on an 8-minute journey through the ethereal.

‘Northern Lights’ is an intricate tapestry of sound, weaving beautiful pads, entrancing arpeggios, and synths that seamlessly melt in and out of each other. With dreamy vocal chops and graceful percussion work, this track embodies dreamy vibes designed to enchant listeners from the very first note.

The EP consists of two mesmerizing tracks. The Original Mix, true to Yashar’s signature style, is a testament to his meticulous craftsmanship in the melodic techno genre. As a counterpart, the ‘Hasan Ghazi Remix’ takes the ethereal allure of the original and amplifies its energy. Hasan Ghazi, the label boss at Reckoning Records and a true visionary in his own right, infuses his signature melodic techno and progressive house fusion into the track. The result? An infectious groove that beckons dancers to the floor and leaves them yearning for more.

This EP is not only a showcase of Yashar Sargordan’s musical prowess but also a testament to the collaborative spirit of Reckoning Records. We’re beyond thrilled to be the platform for such an artistic synthesis between Yashar and Hasan.
