Veteran producer, DJ and label head Jason Busteed is back with his new single “Slip Away,” a sparkling and soulful dose of modern dance-pop that is immersed in both emotional depth and feel good vibes. Out now via Lefty Shades Records, the song, in the spirit of soul, serves as colourful redemption of music’s ability to guide us back to joy, release and liberation.
Nestled over smooth, house-inflected production and fueled by ethereal, uplifting vocals, “Slip Away” seems made for both radio playlists and summer dancefloors. Its glittering synth layers and crisp grooves are a sound of easeful motion, the kind of music that moves you to roll the windows down and lose yourself in a sea of bodies at a festival, or just lose yourself alone.
Busteed has been a staple of the Irish underground electronic from over two decades, making real music for real heads, favouring craft over hype and injecting heart, groove, and authenticity into everything he does. On “Slip Away,” he threads the needle between timeless dancefloor brief and modern pop sheen, a song that seems at once archaic and refreshingly modern.
Balancing soulful escapism with dance-ready production, “Slip Away” is exemplary of Jason Busteed’s knack for producing music at home in any setting, mood, or audience. It’s a track that lifts the spirit.
