"Luna" the second original track on the EP, opens with a cinematic and slow-motion feel, reminiscent of a movie soundtrack. As the track progresses, whispered vocals and elegant, winding sequences weave through, bringing a subtle yet captivating sensuality. The piano melody that eventually emerges serves as the final, perfect touch, completing the track’s intricate soundscape. "Luna" is a delicate journey that resonates with a deep sense of togetherness and joy. It’s a moody house anthem crafted for those who appreciate the emotional depth and introspective vibes of electronic music.

To complement this journey, the EP features two remixes from talented Traum artists who have recently released their own solo EPs. Kawari’s remix of "Supernova" brings an upbeat tempo, blending in a boundless sense of optimism that propels the track into new territory.

The second remix is delivered by pørtl, formerly of the post-rock band "There's a Light". Their take on "Supernova" strips it down to a more straightforward yet dreamy version, skillfully merging two contrasting worlds into one. This blend results in a subtle but captivating tension that keeps listeners hooked.

"Herbstlaub"" continues this fusion, delivering a melancholic yet driving post-Detroit sound with twisted melodies that could easily belong on Derrick May’s Transmat label. Yet, Korn’s contemporary production techniques make it feel fresh and innovative, merging emotional depth with danceable intensity.

On "Jupitermond," Korn explores the ambient side of his sound, carrying that post-Detroit atmosphere into a more introspective space. As the track progresses, subtle beats begin to surface, giving it a soft, mesmerizing pulse that lingers long after it ends.

Jacob Korn "The Air" EP is a four-track journey that highlights Korn’s ability to merge the rhythmic warmth of house with the edge of Detroit’s techno heritage.

Finally "Juno Dub"" brings Korn’s experimental side to the forefront. Rooted in raw house music yet pushing beyond the typical dance floor, this track is a sophisticated exploration of sound. Korn uses the essence of dub to create something that’s not just about rhythm, but about taking listeners on a deeper, sonic journey.

Following this "Slave To The Deck" pays homage to the dance floor with a vibrant Balearic spirit and the infusion of spiritual native sounds. This track is a minimalist percussion masterpiece, a testament to Jackspot's roots in the minimalist house scene. The organ sounds at the midpoint are hauntingly beautiful, sending shivers down your spine. It’s a journey that seamlessly bridges the dance floor and the reflective, conjuring the ethereal tones of Portishead and Massive Attack.

The final track, "Dual Casualties" may bear a modest title, but it’s a beat-driven gem. It unfolds gradually, each step a sensitive progression towards a full-bodied groove that ignites the dancefloor with an irresistible energy.
