Denver-based producer John Hastings has been featured many times in XLR8R‘s Downloads section over the years under the guise of his RUMTUM alias. However, the past few months have seen Hastings begin to slowly release tracks from his new, more house-oriented project, Mt. Roué, which today hits the XLR8R pages for the first time with “Do It Again.” A breezy endeavor, “Do It Again” is fueled by a number of playful percussion layers and the relaxed bounce of a natural-sounding drum kit. From there, Hastings’ nimbly builds a procession of tremolo’d chords, whispered vocals, sugary melodies, and tasteful atmospheric touches, all of which helps make “Do It Again” an ideal candidate for the types of sunny outdoor dance parties the warmer temperatures of the months ahead are bound to bring. Basically, “Do It Again” is the kind of track that has us already pining for summer.
