Out Now On Purified Records
With an impressive catalogue of forward-thinking productions to his name, Dutch artist Huminal joins forces with fellow countryman Mitch de Klein for the captivating ‘Mirage’ EP, marking Mitch’s debut on Purified Records. After a summer filled with standout performances across festivals and shows, the duo channel their creative momentum into this release.
Opening with the collaborative title track, ‘Mirage’, they weave a deep yet playful journey built around groovy synth motifs and textured sound design. Intricate rhythmic layers push the arrangement forward, while an effortlessly laidback flow keeps the energy fluid and inviting. Evoking moments of euphoria and introspection in equal measure, the track highlights both artists’ shared ability to craft emotive soundscapes that resonate across dancefloors and beyond. On the flip side, Mitch steps into the spotlight with his solo cut ‘Night Owl’ – an atmospheric excursion guided by expansive break moments and soaring synths. With its evolving intensity and otherworldly character, the track delivers a powerful late-night voyage destined to linger long after the final note fades.
Renowned for his colourful, melody-driven sound, Huminal (aka Jelle Jansen) has carved out a unique space within the electronic music landscape. Blending organic textures with elegant rhythms, his productions enchant listeners with their ability to transport them to another world. Garnering widespread support from global tastemakers including Eelke Kleijn, Lane 8 and Nora En Pure, as well as an ever-growing international fanbase, Jelle continues to push his sonic boundaries. Bringing his own flair to the project, Mitch de Klein makes a striking entrance to the label with the ‘Mirage’ EP. Known for his versatile take on melodic house and techno, his work has earned support from global heavyweights including Joris Voorn and RÜFÜS DU SOL to name just a few.
