Jenifa Mayanja
Chances

For its seventh release, Hardmatter welcomes one of its long-time heroes to the label roster: Jenifa Mayanja.

The heavyweight 12-inch features 3 cuts of New York City deepness at its finest and stands as a firm reminder that house music is anything but dead. Kicking off proceedings is A1 s A Feeling, a balmy number that finds Jenifa, in classic fashion, programming synths over lithe drums and twitchy, cosmic soundscape layers.

The B-side finds the first lady of deep house in a rhythmic mood, with B1 Second Time s the Charm tapping into early Bumako vibes and B2 s Leaning Into It rounding the EP off in blissful broken-beat style a perfect addition to the Hardmatter family.
