From Tokyo with Love: HATRRICK’s Progressive House Journey
In a landmark collaboration within the Reckoning Records family, “Tokyo Rain,” the latest EP from progressive house virtuoso HATRRICK, showcases not just the artist’s growth but also the deep, creative symbiosis within the label. With this release, HATRRICK not only introduces his fourth EP on Reckoning Records but also celebrates a unique partnership with the label’s visionary boss, Hasan Ghazi, who has personally remixed one of the tracks.
“Tokyo Rain” features two tracks that epitomize the beauty and evolution of electronic music. The Original Mix is a melodious journey that reflects HATRRICK’s increasing sophistication as a producer. With its groovy, immersive soundscape, the track is a love letter to the ephemeral beauty of Tokyo under the rain, capturing the essence of the city’s vibrant, pulsating heart.
Adding a compelling contrast to the EP, Hasan Ghazi’s remix of “Tokyo Rain” infuses the original with a heavier, melodic techno flair that Ghazi is renowned for. This collaboration is not just a remix but a dialogue between two prolific minds within the electronic music sphere. It stands as a testament to the dynamic, evolving nature of Reckoning Records, highlighting how artists and the label head himself engage in creative exchanges that push musical boundaries.
“Working on ‘Tokyo Rain’ has been an exhilarating journey,” says HATRRICK. “Having Hasan Ghazi, a mentor and a pioneer in our label, remix one of my tracks is an honor. His version not only complements the original but elevates it, showcasing the depth and diversity of our music.”
Hasan Ghazi, commenting on the collaboration, adds, “HATRRICK’s growth as a producer is palpable in ‘Tokyo Rain.’ His original mix is a masterpiece of progressive house, and I aimed to honor that with my remix. This EP symbolizes what Reckoning Records stands for – innovation, collaboration, and pushing the frontiers of electronic music.”
