THN056 >> BRIAN KAGE - EIGHT WAYS
[05.05.2004 | DEEP MELODIC JOURNEYS]

Brian Kage is one uprising talent from Detroit, whose music
exactly transposes the melancholy, yet somehow optimistic
feeling of the city he’s living in. Having released 12’’s on
Beretta and Lumina earlier this year, Brian appreciates the
idea of releasing music online to attract a larger audience –
therefore Thinner is the right place to drop his dreamy melodic
Detroit techhouse choons. With the Eight Ways EP, Brian wrote
each song about his various travels through life. Each song
represents vivid memories that have influenced him as a person.

The idea of change is a big theme with this EP.

The title song, Eight Ways, is a deep, melodic journey exploring
the idea of the various paths we come upon in our lives that
will ultimately alter our future. In Brian’s life, eight always
seems like a magical number. It likes to appear at the points
in his life where he feels on the right path. Brian feels that
there will be eight ultimate paths to take in his life to
complete his mission. Dennis DeSantis, native Michigan’ aswell,
reworked Eight Ways (Dennis DeSantis Mix) and gave the song a
very seducing appeal by adding blissful harmonies and beautifully
filtered chords. His own careful melodic edits give it a unique
charming touch.

Laguna is a jazzy little number about achieving one of life's
many goal. It's like the carefree freedom you experience as you
finish a big goal, that allows you after accomplishing to make
your life what you want it be. A lot of this song was influenced
by sunny days spending at the beach in northern Michigan. Our
friend Taho from France, owner of Lumina took a chill pill and
remixed Laguna (Taho Remix). His filtering on the bassline gives
it a subtle 80’s touch, while the stabs and pads are more
pulsating and spacey – as the whole remix is put in a wide and
warm bed with carpets of shining stars around.

With writing Luna Twilight, Brian wrote a song about the power of
change in our lives that can be so instant, and how we tend to
take the important things for granted. A long time ago, Brian
lost a close sibling. He was young, and suffered from the
darkness & despair. It took many years, to learn to cope but
meanwhile, while walking under a pitch black northern Michigan
sky, gazing at the stars, Brian feels the presence protecting him.
The Luna Twilight (Paul Keeley Remix) is very densely and
satisfies by transforming and shifting the main pads of the
original and applying a clicky, yet intense touch.
