about

As we venture towards the heart of summer's conclusion, we are ecstatic to release one of the label's favorite projects to date.

Mitch Oliver and Maaruo represent the thriving community of dance music in Montreal; a city also home to the When We Dip team, and a pillar of the creative direction behind the way we run the labels and media platform. As many have before them, the two were regulars on dancefloors across the city before moving into the studio and harnessing their love of electronic music as creators.

Each of the producers have made important strides in the early days of their solo careers, including Mitch's EP on Magician on Duty and Maaruo's remix of Budakid right here on XYZ. They've also found a distinct knack for partnership, as is evident in their joint track Corne Mistur which was released with Akbal Music.

Same Light will surely continue to turn heads and capture ears for the two Montrealers. It has that something special, an indescribable quality found in the tunes we love the most, no matter the genre. The all-Quebecois team for Same Light includes Beyries, one of the province's most beloved singer-songwriters. Her jaw dropping vocals glide naturally over the crisp arrangement from Mitch and Maaruo, harnessing melancholic prose of somber romance. Instrumentally, percussive flair and fluttering pads carry the words in perfect harmony; A tune that will write it's own story.

Hernan Cattaneo needs no introduction, as he's a masterful figure within melodic music. A massive inspiration for Maaruo and Mitch, it's an honor to have him a part of the project as he remixes Same Light with his comrade Martin Garcia. Cattaneo and Garcia lengthen the arrangement, bringing progressive and club-driven tones to the sultry vocals. A masterpiece from the maestro for late night affairs.

Erdi Irmak is no stranger to the scene, and an established purveryover of touching productions on the likes of Tale & Tone and Hoomidas. The Turk offered his interpretations of Same light, finding the perfect middle ground for the release. He pays homage to the original's understated moments, while placing weight on the groove to give the remix immense dance-ability.
