British artist Fort Romeau is one to never miss the mark, releasing on labels like Permanent Vacation, Crosstown Rebels, Ghostly International, and Phantasy Sound in the past, he’s become one of electronic music’s most cherished producers. His latest album ‘Romantic Gestures Vol.1’ is a quality collection of eight tracks, and compiles some of his single releases from the previous 18 months, alongside album-exclusive inclusion ‘Melody Dub’. The album seamlessly blends elements of deep
house, electronica, garage, and techno, using energetic percussive rhythms and a diverse range of basslines to keep the pace going strong from start to finish. The project is another glowing example of his musical prowess, sitting alongside previous records like 2015’s ‘Insides’ and 2022’s ‘Beings of Light’, which both came via Ghostly International.
Where to start:
Every Man Has Your Voice: Big chunky drum sounds and shadowy vocal work
Hold Up: Dense textured basslines and polished drum rhythms
Blue: Dreamy house cut with a big filtered bassline
