Sam Goku

Radiants

Dekmantel • 2024

Riding the wave of his dynamic releases over the past few years, Sam Goku makes his Dekmantel debut with »Radiants«. With four impressive tracks that shatter the conventions of classic dancefloor hits, he sets new standards. Berlin-based Robin Wang, known for his releases on labels such as Atomnation, has established himself as an essential artist for those who appreciate the unconventional.

This is evident from the opening track »Tides (Under The Moonlight)«, a dynamic and mystical song that builds skilfully with graceful and dreamy restraint. The highlight of the EP is the title track, which unleashes a wave of nostalgia and euphoric optimism with its sparkling chords and driving bass lines. »Radiants« is an impressive testament to Sam Goku’s versatile talent and cements his position as an outstanding producer, creating a distinctive and unique soundscape off the beaten track.
