Vertex released a new EP on TesseracTstudio Records.

TesseracTstudio Records released a pounding new release by Vertex. Listen to the new Psy-Progressive tunes by and check out an interview we made with half of the Serbian duo, Slobodan Gacesa.

“Heartbeat” is a 2-tracker EP, featuring one original by the duo and one collaborative tune with Ioshua and Visua. It`s a good “morning” progressive release, with great groovy vibes that make you imagine the next time you`ll be dancing under the sun.

The EP starts with “Heartbeat”. Great progressive vibe on this one: the opening track has a really good groove and pumping base-line, both combined with emotional vocals and touches of melody.

The 2nd track, “Vertex & Ioshua feat. Visua – Light Frequency”, follows the same line. It opens with a great catchy groove and gets more pounding after the break, with a beautiful melody that enters and making you wish you`ll hear it in the open air under the sun sometime soon.

Vertex is a collaboration project by Nikola Kozic (aka Zyce) and Slobodan Gacesa from Serbia. The flourishing psytrance scene in Serbia has brought plenty of new artists in past few years. Artist like Sideform, Zyce and Talpa to mention few, release music in some of the biggest labels around like Iboga & Nano Records, and play on some of the biggest stages around. Most of the Serbian producers produce powerful Progressive trance, with driven intense baselines and heavy focus on the dancefloor. Taken that into account, it was only a matter of time that the Serbian scene will a record label, and in 2010 it happened with Zyce`s TesseracTstudio Records label.

We had a chat with Slobodan of Vertex about the Serbian psytrance scene, their style and of course about the new release.
