“Set Me Free” is a captivating melodic house track that fuses elements of UKG and breakbeat with the immersive, emotive sound Codeko is known for. The alluring topline anchors the track as it moves between uncertainty, infatuation, and pure elation. The melodic production traces the peaks and valleys, as it drifts from pensive keys to soaring synths that stimulate a sense of unbridled joy. Crisp garage-inspired percussion keeps a dance-friendly rhythm poised to keep the hips swaying and feet shuffling with ease. Twinkling keys and a carefree air add to the breezy house groove. “Set Me Free” is the soundtrack to summer love, with its radiant essence set to bring shining rays of hope to the dark days of winter.
Codeko explains the influence and inspiration behind the release, saying, “‘Set Me Free’ was a track where I was determined to try some new concepts and try something truly unique. I decided to take some UK garage and breakbeat influence from my childhood in London, and incorporate it into the sound that I’m more well known for. I chose a distinct ‘happy-but-sad’ feeling when writing the melody and harmony, which I combined with a strong garage-influenced 4×4 beat throughout, and a distinctly faster bpm. The end result is a dancey yet emotive track that I hope provides a more interesting take on melodic house.”
