"Amarna"

Below The Radar exclusive

Producer and label boss of the recently established Glasgow based label Heka Trax, Nightwave states:

"The inspiration behind "Amarna" is a bit of a fantasy - I tried to imagine what Ancient Egyptian music would sound like with electronic tools. I used repetitive 4/4 kicks to drive the energy of the track, layered drones, chants and distorted synths for a hypnotic, mystical feel."
