Track of the Day: H3000 - 'July Heat' (Jack Ward remix)

Limerick DJ and producer Jack Ward has shared his remix of Australian duo H3000's 2021 single 'July Heat'.

The warped, futuristic banger sounds like it's from the year 3025, full of warmth and dancefloor energy.

H3000 is the new collaboration from Luke Steele (Empire Of The Sun, The Sleepy Jackson) and Jarrad Rogers (Charli XCX, Lana Del Rey), whose forthcoming self-titled debut album is set for release on September 17

25 year-old Jack Ward first started making music almost ten years ago playing drums before moving to digital production, citing the likes of FL Studio as his weapon of choice.

With a sincere love for exuberant chart-topping pop, the LGBTQ producer channels his penchant for addictive hooks and saccharine melodies into his own work.

His tracks bear a distinct house signature, influenced by '80s melodic pop and '90s/'00s dance, while bringing his own twist into the mix, noticing the latest experiments in contemporary electronic music.

After a debut with Dirtybird in 2015 and an appearance on a Ministry of Sound compilation, Ward moved towards a more experimental dancefloor sound, most apparent on his self-released 12” Witches Next Door in 2017, that earned praise from Madteo, Morgan Buckley and The Trilogy Tapes label.

After appearing on acclaimed 2020 Patruin charity compilation 'For MASI', the track has since gone to amass critical acclaim, being featured by one of the biggest electronic music publications in the world.

Jack released his first remix of Washington based band Daisies and their song 'Dido' in May 2021 from the Daisies In The Studio with DJ Rap Class - released through Jokers Got A Posse.

With more projects forthcoming later this year, this producer doesn't seem to be slowing down anytime soon.
