His approach remains simple and honest: let the music breathe, trust instinct, and build each track with care. This mindset has connected him with listeners across the U.S. and Europe, and helped him grow steadily throughout the year.

To close this chapter, he shares ‘Gravity’ on Electronic Brew Records. The track stays true to his organic style while adding a more direct, dance-ready pulse, showing a natural step forward rather than a sharp turn.

In this conversation, MYLAMINE talks about the creative rhythm that carried him through 2025, the intentions behind his sound, and how ‘Gravity’ fits into his ongoing journey.

EG: Hi MYLAMINE, welcome to EG! ‘Gravity’ feels both uplifting and weightless. What was the initial spark or emotion that inspired this track?

MYLAMINE: Thanks for the invite. It’s funny, I never go into creating a track with a mood or idea in mind other than it sounding deep, jazzy, and soulful. What was exciting about this song was how much dancier it was than most of my other stuff. I intentionally rode that wave and made it bouncy and fun. Like you are floating in the clouds.

EG: You’ve described 2025 as your most productive year yet. What personal or artistic shift unlocked this creative momentum for you?

MYLAMINE: My vision started to take form this year as to where I want to take this music thing. When your vision is firm, and you stick to what you love and what makes you happy, the world is yours. It also helps that the older I get, the better I understand how different pieces of the music industry puzzle fit together, such as marketing, public relations, social media, etc. These things were very unfamiliar to me for many years.

EG: The track blends soulful keys, jazzy elements, and funky rhythm. How do you approach integrating live-feeling, organic textures into your house productions?

MYLAMINE: My goal from when I first started making music was that I did not want it to sound computer-generated. I wanted to take the time with each instrument to give it life, whether by tweaking it in certain ways, layering it, etc. This care for authenticity and organic feelings has carried on for all the years I’ve been active.

EG: In what ways does ‘Gravity’ represent an evolution of your sound compared to earlier releases like ‘Find My Way’ or ‘Setting Sun’?

MYLAMINE: I’ve been told that my songs keep getting better and better in quality as they are released. That’s the goal, really. Keep getting better, keep progressing the music, keep making fresh and dope stuff. As far as all of the songs from 2025, I think they share the same vibes and feelings. And that’s exactly what I was going for.

EG: House music is all about movement. What kind of dancefloor moment did you imagine when crafting the groove in ‘Gravity’?

MYLAMINE: My music tends to sound more subdued and chill, but I think that ‘Gravity’ has a bit more force to it while still maintaining that vibe as well. I imagine all of my music being played at an outside club on a beach late at night.

EG: You’ve gained support from tastemakers like Jazzanova and coverage from Apple Music and DJ Mag. How has that recognition influenced your confidence or direction this year?

MYLAMINE: Getting support and cosigns from established artists and communities is always a good feeling. I try not to put too much thought into it, though. What really matters to me is how the regular fan feels about my music. The random person who comments that they love the song and it made their day better — that’s what I love to hear.

EG: Electronic Brew Records has been central to your recent output. What’s special about your connection with the label and its creative environment?

MYLAMINE: Electronic Brew Records started out as a blog and online magazine that highlighted unheard and mostly unknown music artists. I’ve always been a big fan of underground music culture, so I instantly felt at home with Electronic Brew Records and their passion for this type of music.

“That’s the goal, really. Keep getting better, keep progressing the music, keep making fresh and dope stuff”

EG: Your music is described as “house with heart.” What does that phrase mean to you personally?

MYLAMINE: I think it means I put my heart and soul into it. I’m not afraid to put melodies and sounds that are different or might have a melodic control over the song. I’m not trying to make EDM or any type of regimented music styles. I want things to be free and really connect with the listener.

EG: Which artists or scenes, past or present, have most shaped the soulful, jazzy DNA of your sound?

MYLAMINE: Well, I played upright jazz and classical bass in my youth, so that’s when I fell in love with artists like Charles Mingus. I wasn’t very good, but I think the experience of playing in bands and learning the instrument opened my eyes to the world of creating music and how it’s actually a tangible thing. Other than that, I’ve always just absolutely loved jazzy, soulful, downtempo, and chill music for as long as I can remember. There are too many artists to name.

EG: As someone carving out a space in the new wave of soulful house, how do you balance timeless influences with the urge to innovate?

MYLAMINE: I got into listening to and creating house, I’d say, a little bit later in life. So I do not feel like timeless influences really affect my sound. At the same time, I do not feel the need to “innovate” per se, I just want to make music that people enjoy and love as much as I do. That’s ultimately what matters.

EG: If ‘Gravity’ could visually manifest as a space or moment, what would it look or feel like?

MYLAMINE: You are with your best friends, and you’ve had a few drinks. Music comes on, and you all look at each other and start to move. The music binds you together, and the smiles do not leave your faces. You think about your friendships, your family, your life, and you are grateful to be alive.

EG: You’ve built a growing community of listeners across the U.S. and Europe. What has been the most surprising or meaningful interaction with fans this year?

MYLAMINE: A certain DJ really went out of his way to shout me and one of my songs out. He probably has no idea how much it meant to me, but that is such a nice feeling. I am a huge music lover and listener myself, so I feel much affinity for other people who are like that too.

EG: What creative rituals or studio habits help you get into the emotional headspace your music is known for?

MYLAMINE: Start with drums, then go to melodies, then go to song structure, then go to final touches. This is a very condensed blueprint of how I make music in my little studio. As far as emotions go, I just let whatever I am feeling at the time flow into the music. That usually comes out in chord structures and melodies.

“I just want to make music that people enjoy and love as much as I do”

EG: Looking ahead, what direction do you feel yourself being pulled toward in 2026, sonically, professionally, or even personally?

MYLAMINE: I do not look that far ahead, to be honest. I just hope I can keep creating and making enjoyable-sounding music. Tomorrow is not guaranteed, and so we must put our heart and soul into everything we are doing right now. What this means to me is creating whenever I feel the urge. Not letting the distractions of life get in the way of the beauty of it.

EG: And finally, a fun one: If house music operates like the laws of physics, what’s one rule you’d break — or reinvent — to shape your own universe of sound?

MYLAMINE: One thing I would definitely reinvent is the use of vocals. You will not hear much in my music. I have no clue why, but I have never personally liked highly vocal-driven house tracks. I think I live in the world of inanimate objects that create music (instruments), not sounds from humans.
