Exclusive interview and music review with Gojko for ‘Luxury”
This is a pretty fresh and interesting track. At first instinct the sounds that emerge appear to be hinting that some sort of trance or happy hardcore dance track is about to emerge, yet fairly quickly there’s a distinct touch of the oriental in there, and actually this meeting of instrumentation works well. The fusion of cultures is quite refreshing, and at it’s core, the track has all the basic components of a happy hardcore dance track or summer anthem, except in this case it has a little something special about it too – an added twist.
The songwriting behind the music is the sort that could be easily remixed and reworked in any number of ways, the possibilities are endless and that indicates a well structured song, a relatable topic, and a strong set of melodies. The pan flute sound running throughout I think gives this particular recording that something special to identify it by, and in fact the leading vocal performance adds a huge amount of character as well, both of which make the track notably recognisable.
The more you listen in fact the more the track really does strike as something extremely unique. The song is great, the melody stays with you, the concept of your love as luxury is easy to remember, and the imagery and devotion featured throughout the verses is quite powerful. Instrumentally though, the choices really stand out as something new, and yet the generally energy and vibe of the piece feels familiar and seems to take influence from the genres mentioned earlier. It’s a great example of using inspiration and still veering off in your own creative direction. The track is well produced and it builds up and falls away with precision and strength. The mix is interesting at all times, so it keeps your attention.
