Dutch producer Estiva aka Steven Baan has established himself as a leading name in the world of dance and electronic music since launching the project in 2007 through his prolific output and a globe-trotting touring schedule. After kicking off his career through a host of impressive releases on Enhanced Recordings he went on to release with the likes of Anjunabeats and Armada, releasing two highly-regarded albums, ‘Spectacle’ and ‘Metamorphoses’ in the process. His success found him performing at clubs and festivals around the world, including the likes of Tomorrowland, Ultra, Creamfields and Dreamstate.

In 2017 he put out his first two-track EP on Colorize with the sublime ‘Repeater / Space Dust’ and since 2020 has become a label regular, delivering a host of superb original productions, first-rate remixes for the likes of Matt Fax and Dezza as well as taking the reins on Colorize’s annual Colorscapes compilation series for the first time in 2021. He has also toured extensively as part of Colorize’s lineup through the United States and in Europe.

Now he unveils ‘Infinita’, an album that defines Estiva as a musician in 2023 and is set to be a benchmark for the crossover progressive / techno sound that he continues to pioneer. He kicked off proceedings on the ‘Infinita’ album campaign with a majestic first single in the form of ‘On The Line’ with Julia Church, a must-listen and album highlight that sees the two acts lock in to create a rapturous dance record. He followed up with further singles ‘Via Infinita’, ‘Carnal Emotion’ and ‘Dreamer’, with the full ‘Infinita’ album arriving in all its glory on the 9th of June.

It’s an album that sees Baan embrace his influences with open arms as he explores a range of sonic textures throughout while never abandoning the core, club-ready foundations that it’s built upon. The throughline between the album’s tracks is their distinctly danceable energy which is delivered to the listener through various forms including the progressive sounds of ‘Meant To Be’, ‘Via Infinita’ and ‘India’, the techno-adjacent textures of ‘Seven Six Four’, ‘Heaven and ‘Ecstasy’ - with the latter two serving as introductions to his new techno alias Cosmosky - the deep house sounds of ‘Snow Flower’ and ‘Ghost Town’ and then the upbeat, melodic nature of tracks like ‘All Too Much’ and ‘Dreamer’. The album shines bright thanks to this diversity, with new twists and turns at every moment, and is also lifted to new heights thanks to the involvement of collaborators including Julia Church, Jess Ball, Diana Miro and RBBTS. Their songwriting and vocal talents expand the emotional core of the album, giving it a profound depth that further enhances ‘Infinita’ as a dance and electronic music triumph.

A few words here from Estiva himself: ‘‘I’m humbled to have teamed up with some amazing artists on ‘Infinitia’. A few familiar sounds are coming from collaborations with Diana Miro and RBBTS. But I’ve also met a couple of new incredible artists like Julia Church and Jess Ball. Next to these collaborations you’ll find plenty of solo works in which I’ve really pushed myself on multiple levels.’’
