Los Angeles-based DJ and producer AJ Hazel has become a rising talent of note since stepping onto the scene, crafting captivating and dimensional sounds as an independent and self-releasing artist. Last year marked a huge milestone for the multi-faceted talent, featuring on Music Is 4 Lovers’ ‘Fresh Faces’ guest mix series and releasing numerous stand-out singles including ‘Don’t Wanna Lose’ and ‘I’m So Fly’ which accumulated over 10,000 streams.
AJ Hazel’s newest release ‘High Off Your Vibe’ is a record full of energy and attitude. Dubby chords fuse with euphoric pads and warped melodies to get listeners moving, whilst precise percussion combines high-frequency bursts and punchy vocal snippets to add another sure-fire addition to this dynamic offering. It’s a track that takes the blossoming artists’ repertoire to the next level with strong house influences to keep fans and listeners alike locked in.
“This song makes me feel like the rush I get from making music and seeing the support and love gives me a high. That feeling is something I feel like chasing right now and this song is a great way to start the year off for me.” – AJ Hazel
The production process behind this track began with a drum pattern which was layered with the alluring vocals. AJ Hazel also mentioned: “For this song, the vocals really spoke to me because music has been picking up lately and I’ve been feeling really inspired. On top of that, this song felt like it had a theme to it. It felt like you could hear it in a catchy detective movie. So I just ran with that because I haven’t heard a house track that made you feel like you were a secret spy.”
