After years dominating the techno scene, Spartaque has turned a new corner, diving into a more melodic world under his fresh alias, As Ide. The latest single, Beach Kiss, released on September 27, 2024, marks the second offering from this exciting new project. Known for heavy beats and an underground edge, As Ide brings a softer, more soulful touch to the scene with this track.
Beach Kiss captures the warmth and beauty of a summer evening by the ocean. Its infectious grooves and lush melodies transport listeners to golden-hour beaches, where sun-kissed moments are fleeting yet unforgettable. Layered with deep basslines and dreamy rhythms, the track evokes an emotional journey of summer love, sunsets, and the gentle pull of the sea breeze. This melodic transformation shows As Ide exploring a new creative side, blending emotional depth with undeniable danceability.
The journey of As Ide is rooted in Spartaque’s musical upbringing. With a background steeped in classical music thanks to his father, a choir conductor, and his grandmother, a conservatory professor, As Ide weaves rich melodies with modern electronic beats in a way that stands out. This unique fusion has allowed him to transition seamlessly into a commercially appealing yet artistically rich sound.
Through the launch of his own label, Aside Music, As Ide paves the way for a new era, offering music that bridges the gap between underground purists and mainstream listeners. Beach Kiss is just the beginning, as As Ide’s sound promises to redefine melodic house while staying true to its emotional roots.
