Toronto-based producer HNTR makes his debut on fellow Canadian deadmau5’s acclaimed label, Mau5trap with ‘Shadows In The Dark’ featuring Elliot Moss.
HNTR is the dark future of techno and progressive house, and having previously opened for deadmau5, releasing on mau5trap is a natural next step for the buzzing talent.
‘Shadows In The Dark’ is a progressive house escape perfectly fit for mau5trap’s moody catalog. With a strong progressive bassline and hard-edge synths dressed in the evocative vocals of New York-based songwriter and producer Elliot Moss, the single nests itself somewhere in the kaleidoscope hours before sunrise begins to dust the dancefloor. ‘Shadows In The Dark’ is a unique spin on underground sonics, fusing indie vocals, relentless breaks, and melodic analog synths, and ultimately positioning HNTR as a name you need to know coming out of lockdown. The new single follows the success of HNTR’s second EP ‘Mind Games’, which released on his own label, No Neon in March. The four-track EP showcases HNTR’s dynamic ability to bridge techno with progressive house, and showcases No Neon as a tastemaker within the underground realm.
