Maral: “Heart Shimmer”
Written By Michael Gutierrez
The Los Angeles-based producer and DJ Maral has the chops of a club kid and the soul of an Iranian-American on a 21st-century vision quest to connect the two wings of the hyphen into a transcendent banger.
The album Ground Groove brings a kitchen sink-attitude to the creative process. It’s house music that’s taking tips from drone, rock, and world music vibrations. Our highlighted track “Heart Shimmer” is an atmospheric delight.
A little spooky, a little goth, a little hard to dance to, but chock full of after hours mood in the City of Angels.
Stream, share, buy to your heart’s content.
