Human (with Sub Focus)

"Human" with Sub Focus finds John Summit in collaborative dialogue with one of drum and bass and electronic music's most trusted melodic architects. The track sits at a genre crossroads — Summit's house sensibilities and Sub Focus's experience with larger-scaled electronic emotion producing something that moves faster than typical house but with more breathing room than full drum and bass. The vocal treatment across the track emphasizes vulnerability and connection, the desire to be seen as fully human rather than as role or function — a theme that resonates differently in the context of dancefloor music, where anonymity and communion coexist. Production-wise, the elements are pristine: crisp transients, a mid-range that is carefully managed to prevent muddiness even at volume, melodic development that arrives in waves rather than sudden releases. For Summit, it represents range; for Sub Focus, it is consistent with a long track record of emotionally ambitious electronic music.
