Gundamea Comes "Back For More" on EDCT

Deep, dark, and moody – Gundamea delivers the progressive sounds of 2021 as we gear up for summertime and get “Back For More.”

During the year spent in lockdown, music producers pumped up the world with moody productions that exhale a collective release of energy. As travel disappeared, artists honed their sonic weapons for the madness of release warfare as the world pulsed back into life. And one of those artists is Gundamea. Better known as Stoneface & Terminal, the trance duo spreads their production knowledge in new directions under the deeper, darker realm with this new alias.

On their tune “Back For More,” Gundamea challenges their own production process. Rewind the clock over a decade ago and the darker sounds of progressive house and trance ooze from the sonic walls on this one. The female vocalist – uncredited on the track – weaves a soft easy voice into the mix that feels one part Lana del Rey and another part sultry lounge singer. Otherwise, the track is a sparse affair with intention more for the dark corners of the warehouse than the big stages of a festival. Thoughtful, strong, and driving – this track takes the atmosphere missing in our lives and reminds us about its return.

The track finds its home on EDCT – a new project from Celwin Frenzen, who for a spell of years helped run Ferry Corsten‘s Flashover. The label removes the genre concept – instead opting to just sign tracks that fit an ethos of creative atmosphere. In Celwin’s own words, “I want EDCT to trade comfort zones for quality reliance, so we can all do some musical exploring again!” And Gundamea’s second release on the label fits into that cog wonderfully.

We’re very happy to release this single on EDCT. The label’s vision matches ours perfectly: tone-over-genre. This song is a life-long dream of ours, we’ve been testing it for a long time and waited to find the perfect home. When the singer (she doesn’t want us to mention her name) sent us this song, she said she always wanted to do an EDM song. We listened to it a couple of times and instantly came up with the song as is. It’s a very cool house-progressive-techno-ish crossover with a beautiful, haunting vocal. EDCT is a perfect home for it.
