Jason Busteed’s ‘Slip Away’ Is a Shimmering Anthem of Emotional Freedom

Veteran electronic producer and DJ Jason Busteed returns with a new single, “Slip Away,” a shimmering, soulful piece of dance-pop euphoria. Released via his label, Lefty Shades Records, the track is a masterful blend of uplifting vocal hooks and clean, modern house production. It’s perfectly suited for both radio play and summer dancefloors, capturing the essence of emotional freedom and joyful escapism.

With over two decades in the Irish underground scene, Busteed has built a reputation for his emotionally rich productions and impeccable grooves. “Slip Away” is a testament to this, delivering a song that feels both timeless and deeply of the moment. According to Busteed, the track is about “release — emotionally, mentally, even physically,” and the desire to let go of the weight of everyday life. This sentiment is palpable throughout the song’s warm and inviting soundscape.

“Slip Away” was built around a soul-stirring vocal that ignited its creation. The production is a lush tapestry of nylon guitar flourishes, bell-toned melodies, crisp percussion, and a driving house bassline. These elements combine to create a track that can soundtrack a festival sunset just as effectively as it can an intimate headphone moment. Busteed’s meticulous attention to detail and his ability to create a sound that moves both the body and soul are evident.

With previous success on tracks like “Dreamscape,” which gained significant traction on Spotify and thousands of Shazams globally, “Slip Away” reaffirms Busteed’s global resonance. The single marks a new chapter for the artist, one rooted in experience and a desire to create meaningful sonic spaces.
