Following Rashid Ajami’s ecstatic debut with the A-side on our latest Tales of Romance project, we’re thrilled to have him back in full as we kick off the summer months. Through work with the likes of Maya Jane Coles and Atjazz, the Londoner has built a sterling reputation with releases on Get Physical, Einmusika, Anjunadeep, and Tale and Tone. For his inaugural EP with the TOR imprint – Never Knew – he continues to purvey his exquisite brand of deep house.

Kicking off the project is the EP’s namesake – Never Knew. A classically linear drumline sets the foundation, allowing the vocals and piano work to capture the spotlight. A powerful performance on the mic, offering words of longing, showcases Ajami’s ability to steal the soul.

Chasing Ghosts elevates the energy with a sturdy house backbone. The timeless character oozes as playful synths and a revolving bassline enlist the need for a two-step. Rashid lets his production prowess do the talking here, allowing the instrumental arrangement stir us into a deep groove.

The closer, Still Think About You, rests effortlessly at the centerpoint of its predecessors. Synthetic tones welcome a darker edge, with vivid swoops and fluttering melodies riding the punchy kicks. The ripped out vocal chops remain the distance, allowing personal interpretation, while lush builds create dance floor moments a-plenty.//
