If you haven’t heard of Rushkeys and you’re a fan of Chill Melodic House music, then we’re about to introduce you to one of your new favorite artists that starts 2025 with a mesmerizing new opus! Hailing from Vilnius, Lithuania, the artist and producer was born Domas Ruškys, and he specializes in “immersive and emotive soundscapes within the realm of melodic electronica”. His latest single is Rushkeys – Inner Flow, and it comes as part of Wabi Sabi Records’ compilation called Landforms Vol. 1. With its swirling atmospherics, gently pulsing synths and overall calming feel, this new Rushkeys and Wabi Sabi music is bound to appeal to fans of Chill Melodic House everywhere.
Rushkeys – Inner Flow immediately establishes itself as an immersive and introspective piece, with intricate synth melodies that build and build as the piece goes on. Gentle hues of melody infuse the piece too, enhanced by beautifully layered production that ensures the textures of the piece are never anything less than delicate and exquisite. Not that we would expect anything less from new Rushkeys and Wabi Sabi music, both of whom are big names to keep on your radar on the 2025 Chill Melodic House scene.
Still, Rushkeys – Inner Flow is an impressive achievement; according to the artist himself, it “balances reflective moments with energetic flow, perfectly complementing the vision of the Landforms Vol. 1 compilation”, and we couldn’t agree more. In terms of new music from the Chill Melodic House genre, it ticks all the boxes, providing both calming, soothing vibes as well as a place for introspection and reflection. Alongside other tracks the artist has released, including Aurora, Maya and Kira, it’s a perfect representation of Rushkeys’ raison d’être: to blend “dreamy melodies with solid rhythmic grooves” and to create music which “blurs the line between downtempo and organic house, equally suited for moments of reflection and the dancefloor”.
