If you’re looking to charge headfirst into a neon-lit, euphoric rabbit hole of sound, Jimmy de la Mar’s new album EDM Experiment is your boarding pass. Best known for his melodic House roots, Jimmy tosses that playbook into a laser beam and explodes into a festival-ready, emotionally electrified soundscape that feels like Calvin Harris and Armin van Buuren went to a Berlin warehouse and decided to raise a baby. Track after track, the man serves up a buffet of heart-thumping beats, shimmering synths, and vocals that hit like a confessional in a strobe-lit church.
Take “I Want Your Soul” – it’s begging, seducing, dragging you to the dance floor by your collar. The vocals are husky, desperate, hypnotic, she’s got one mission and it’s not subtle. Lust hangs thick in the air while the beat pounds like it’s got secrets to tell and zero shame about them.
Then there’s “City Lights Are Calling,” which is pure strut music. Imagine walking into a club in slow motion while your confidence level is illegally high. Catchy lines pop off like fireworks, the energy is smug and sexy, and the cinematic bridge builds to a vocal high that deserves a wind machine and a spotlight.
Then there’s “OMG,” a glittery fever dream, the vocals coming like an enthralling, dazzling, blurry force of light amidst the immersive daze. The beats drop, then the EDM comes pulsating with electrifying anthemic energy and a desire to get lost in the impossible sensations this song’s providing. Listen to EDM Experiment on Spotify, out loud through your loudspeakers.
