EDM.com Presents: The House Brew, Vol. 1
House and techno are the bedrock of electronic music. From the deep, dark trenches of barebones techno to the entrancing soundscapes of piano-laden melodic house, EDM.com’s monthly series The House Brew explores new releases from time-tested genres. “Next To Me” – RÜFÜS DU SOL “We decided we wanted this to be a simple love song, which is rare of us to do, to create something purely sweet without juxtaposing that with the raw, dark emotions on the other side,” RÜFÜS DU SOL said about “Next To Me.” Tyrone Lindqvist’s yearning vocals welcome listeners alongside a simple, soothing piano melody.
