Rebel of Sleep & Jack Willard – Road Beyond

Immersed Recordings’ A&R assistant Rebel of Sleep and Boston-based Jack Willard first appeared on the label on the Elements 03 release in April 2022. The pair’s solo tracks showcased their abilities to pair strong grooves with minimal melodies, while maintaining traditional melodic house structures. Jack Willard’s ‘Celsius’ was a hit, garnering DJ support from people such as JES, Liquid Todd, Above & Beyond, York, and Nora en Pure.

Rebel of Sleep and Jack Willard team up for their debut collaborative EP. The ‘Road Beyond’ release features two peak-time tracks. Both follow in the footsteps of Jack Willard’s overly aggressive ‘Paragon’ EP’ while combining the trancey melodies similar to those on Rebel of Sleep’s ‘What’s Left Of Us EP.’ This EP is perfect for the melodic progressive househeads, and DJs looking for aggressive tracks for those late night club sets.
